Rain. Oh, and church.

Today it rained 15 times.  Fif.  Teen.  Times.  The rain really isn't bad, it's the fact that when it rains it becomes so incredibly humid that you're almost underwater.  Every tiny hair on my head curled up and frizzed out today.  Bryant, of course, is unaffected, but this was the first day the whole week we've been here that I have wanted to turn on the air conditioning and the sun was behind clouds all day!  Never knew that would happen. 

Also, we went to church today and I must say, our church has the best view on the island.  I forgot my camera--I know, who goes to church without a camera?--so I didn't get pictures, but I promise next week I will.  We also made friends with the Primary President earlier this week, which meant I got to do singing time in Primary.  Cutest kids EVER in this Primary.  One of the little 5 year old boys (a student's son, not a local) decided it was too hot, untucked his shirt and unbuttoned it all the way.  Then he volunteered to come up and help me with singing time and I (awful teacher that I am) told him he had to fix his shirt.  He asked me to do it for him and he was just so cute that I agreed, so I buttoned it up and tucked it in for him and he was the best little helper in the world.  I miss teaching!!

  1. I know what you mean by humidity. We were in Pohnpei in Micronesia on a mission. I hope you get a breeze off the ocean especially at night. That was our salvation. Have fun living near the ocean. We love the beach. Missed you at our last family party. We love you both. Grandma and Grandpa VL

  2. Seattle a day like that last week. Cloudy, yet the hottest day of the week. It was quite the abnormality.
