Friendly Travelers…times eleven


This past weekend was just a normal weekend in La Ceiba, but warrants its own citation of merit for the number of visitors passing through. 
·         
 Sara and David passed the entire week here in their first visit as they began to train to become the caretakers of our teens for next year.
·        
On Thursday morning Sor Keidy arrived as normal, and about an hour later Erin Marina, Allison, Erin Lucia, and Erin Lucia’s little brother (after a visit to his big sister at the farm) arrived on their way home for their first vacation back to the states.  In true finca fashion we celebrated their big day with baleadas, ice cream, and mass. 
·        
The next day Tami and Lily, fellow vols from my class at the farm, arrived to spend the weekend with us simply to visit and share time together.  This was a true gift as they are dear friends to all members of Phase II. 
·        
Then on Sunday afternoon the blessings continued as former vols Kristina and Nely passed through on their way to visit Nely’s new job in Comayagua. 
·        
That night to top off the weekend Betsy arrived back from her vacation with hugs for all, topping us off with eleven visitors in a four day period.

Monday afternoon the house was quiet, and as the girls took a nap after a very full weekend, I took a moment to recognize how truly blessed and lucky we are to be so supported by our extended finca family and all our loved ones.  We are truly grateful everyday for their amazing support and prayers.
