A tour of the countryside.






Our group did some touring of the farming countryside today. Talk about depressing!!! It sure is amazing how some people live. Our bus trip there took us about twenty minutes and boy did we see all sorts of things. We saw big hunks of meat hanging from some string, ladies washing their clothes in a dirty pond, and some outhouses made of brick. I don't know if baby Jack could have stood up in them. Very, very stinky. Whew!!! The natives in the countryside just stared at us. Some of the ladies would bring their babies from indoors to see us. They were dressed in so many layers. We were all roasting in our shorts and tshirts.

Alexa is still a doll. She continues to amaze us everyday with something new. I really believe she is getting stronger each day too. She is so tiny and petite. She continues to chatter and is starting to smile. She loves the outdoors just like her big sister, so I can see us spending many days at Tuscora Park.

Well, that is all for now. We are going to dinner with our Phila crew. I'm sure we will have some stories after that. Love, Lisa, Bob, and Alexa
