So it is day number 5 here at camp crossroads, and the name of this blog pretty much gives away what it is like here. On Saturday and Sunday it rained a lot, so the sun is a nice change. It feels as if we have been here for much longer since none of us can remember what day it is. Laura, Alaina and I had a conversation this morning walking to breakfast saying how we feel like old-timers since we can never remember what day it is. The time spent here though is very relaxing which is a very nice change. On Friday I finished my last exam and then quickly left for 6 weeks. It’s a weird contrast of being constantly so busy, to be constantly so relaxed.
Yesterday a couple who lived in Thailand for 3 years, Kevin and Carlene Klassen, gave us information and background about Thailand, it was very useful and encouraging. We also learned 2 songs in Thai which later on, we sang to the rest of the group. Lets just say that was a very interesting experience, and something that will be happening a lot more in Thailand…oh lucky me. I have realized I can speak English and a little bit of french. But for some reason my mouth was never taught how to speak Thai, and let me say, it definitely proved that point last night!
I am really excited to be spending the next 6 weeks with such an amazing group of women, and will surely have much more to say later on.
As for now, I am going to soak up some sunshine!
