Que Aventura!

Wow! is all I have to say after this last weekend. So, we had an awesome time in panama city! We went to the Albrook mall, which is huge! its a fun place to practice spanish, thats for sure. Then we went out to eat and to a movie, se llama "Estan Todos Bien", "We"re all good". It was about a dad and his four kids and how much he loved them...lets just say I bawled....It reminded me of how great my dad is!
SO then the next day we were on a 7 hour bus to Boquete. It wasn't as bad as we expected and we had a two hour convo in spanish to get some practice in before school! So when we got to boquete we went straight to out host family's house. To say the least, it was hard to live in. Although the family was super sweet, the living arrangements were nowhere near what the school told us to be. Pretty much we did not feel safe, so we spent all day yesterday trying to figure out a new living arrangement. Unfortunately, that was our first day of class too, but we needed to figure out where to go first!
Anyways, the school worked with us and we were able to get a nice, safe hostel about 8 mins from the school. We feel so much better here, and we actually were able to get some sleep! (we got about 2 hours at the host family's house). And after traveling for about 3 days straight, we needed some sleep!
So now we are here, we start school in a couple hours and we are going to try to get into a routine! Starting by doing some power90! talk about not working out for awhile!
If any of you would like to pray for us, please pray for peace and assurance. Its been a pretty stressful tip so far, and now we just need to rest in God. Please pray school goes well and we learn a lot. We are already looking forward to the missions trip with Metro church. So pray God prepares our hearts for that.
God is faithful, and he has consistently showed us that...He is for sure taking us on an adventure!
