Bonfire Bliss

The time is 11:12 pm and I am sitting in my bedroom with Laura and Rachel. I have had a long eventful day and and I can honestly say that I am falling in love with this place. The time is going to go by so fast. I am so thankful for this YWAM base, honestly it is soo nice. We can drink the water here, the showers are cold, it is awesome. I had such a great time today. I will begin at the beginning of the day. The first half of the day we traveled around on the bus dropping people off at our placements. We went to a Mennonite ice cream parlor, it was totally high tech. They had air conditioning and awesome soft serve ice cream. They only thing that was old fashioned was that the girls were all wearing dresses. It was hilarious one lady had a cell phone and a black hair net thingy. I can't really explain it basically its a cloth net thing that she clipped to her head, it reminded me of a Jewish hat. Anyways, enough about that, after we had traveled to every placement the left overs who are going to stay at the base all went to a restaurant. It was a nice restaurant, we were actually allowed to drink the drinks with their ice cubes. I had a chicken sandwich with cheese (like a kraft single slice), ketchup, tomato (which I took off), lettuce and a pickle slice. I didn't order the cheese by the way, but whatever it tasted good. It was like a grilled chicken sandwich. I also had fries and fresh orange juice to drink (twas amazing). Some people ordered fresh watermelon juice, which I believed tasted nasty but I hate watermelon, and yet it still was gross cause they blend the seeds and everything in it. Once we had reached home, we got to relax until the bonfire. We roasted hotdogs and marshmallows. We ate nachos, chocolate chip cookies, and juice, twas a feast. We are being ridiculously spoiled. Following that we went on an adventure looking for tarantulas. That's right people, tarantulas. I did not touch it, but I looked at it and took pictures lol I will be a Tarantula Hunter yet! You watch. Then some people went after a poisonous coral snake, but I stayed back and took pictures once it was captured. I'm a wuss and proud of it. After that people kept on going, but I went home to go on the internet. That was a lot of fun, I have put my journal on my blog site, I have put a video on youtube, and I have checked my e-mail. Anyways, I am tired for bed and I want to read my journal. Peace out everybody, lots of love xoxo
