Mexico-Social/Fun Aspects

Hi all. 

As I wait for the 1000 Mexico pictures I will use what I have from my phone to talk a little about Mexico. These pictures are more of the "me time" and"fun" part of Mexico. 

Trying to put these pictures in chronological order...this is us waiting for our plane to Texas. Evelyna made Ira and I laugh oh so much. She is one funny and silly girl-just gotta love her. (The woman behind us kept giving us not so pleasant glances as we were laughing and talking and she wanted to read her book in peace, I think).

Like on most trips, you'll develop inside jokes with whoever you are with. Sharon from NYC, who was our video girl, send me this picture of papayas the other day because of a silly situation that went on in Mexico. I just want to have this picture up to remind me of those good 'ol memories.

One evening Ira and I stayed to cook and clean while the others visited a church. We had some time to go outside and read our Bibles. We read Galatians 5 and 6 :) We also had fun in the kitchen! Ira is definitely one of the sweetest, kindest people I know! 

 We also tanned on the roof, all of us girls. This is the group of us just being silly. Note the background is the city of Juarez.

We were picked up and driven back to the airport by the Pastor's wife who lives in El Paso, Texas. She drove us to the mountains where we had a beautiful view of El Paso. I Still can't get over the fact that Juarez and El Paso are minutes away, and you can see the El Paso from Juarez, but the difference is night and day. 

Of course, right before takeoff the pilot turned our plane around because something was wrong. We had to wait another 5 hours. Finally, they gave us a new plane. We actually walked from the outside into it-like in the movies ;)

 I thank God for His protection, love, and mercy.  This trip was a blessings and I would definitely go again if the opportunity presents itself, and it is God's will.

Blessings,
Lesya
