Saturday was a rather bleak and rainy day so we decided to make the hour long trip into Temuco, the bigger city around here, to get some needed supplies (and some much wanted supplies). We loaded three guys into a small, single cab pickup and the other 12 of us into a seven passenger mini-van....it was fun=)
Our first stop was lunch at the mall and then to the grocery store. Everyone stocked up on their favorite items - Toblerone chocolate, Nutella, manjar.... From there we went to an indoor market and I confess I didn't take any pictures. Our crowd of 'gringos' stands out enough as it is without pulling out a camera and looking completely touristy. Next we went to an outdoor market and, at special request, I did take some pics!
Everyone oohed and aahed over our blond pile of kids. I was walking with Logan most of the time and several people reached out to touch the 'golden hair of the little doll'=) We also stopped at the Bible Institute,belonging to the same mission as the camp, and while we were there the guys were quite impressed with this sight...
On the way back to camp we stopped at the Thompson's house and picked up some things. Since the break in they've spent most of their time here at camp with us and moved their valuables out as well. On this stop we picked up Micah's cat who happily rode along on his lap.
Tonight we grilled outside and had smores...pictures to come tomorrow, I hope!
