mazatlan

          A seed was recently planted when we caught up with friends of ours who have been serving in Mazatlan, Mexico for a year. We were so intrigued and excited as they recounted all of their experiences and they could see how much our kids eyes were lighting up so much so that we knew there would be no turning back for us once this thought was planted and now it is starting to grow! The wheels are in motion....a little ways down the track so the saying goes but nonetheless in the pipeline! It's called the Pearl of the Pacific, along with it's many wondrous delights are also those of impracticalities like not being able to open your eyes and mouth whilst showering due to the contaminated water and before eating any fruits or vegetables you must wash them in iodine but throwing caution to the wind we think the experience will be enriching and a fabulous grounding for our younglings and US! Does anyone want to join us on our adventure?

                           







One of the bonuses is that the quarter in which we will go to we can get by on little Spanish as the primary language is English which will be a great introduction to us as foreigners.

  1. So wonderful. I have a feeling you will be blessed for your decision. When we lived in New Guinea my Mum would soak all non porous fruit and veges in condes chrystals but iodine might be a healthier alternative. Cherrie
