Greetings from Peru! Today actually finds Jonathan and me in the capital city of Lima. I'm posting this blog from the very plush and comfortable chairs of Starbucks! We have taken a few days to 'come apart' and enjoy each other's company as we celebrate 18 years of marriage. It seems like only yesterday we were travelling together on a singing team representing our college. Those days were so much fun...that we've chosen to 'travel together' 'til death do us part :-) I am so blessed to serve alongside my best friend. Not everyone can say that, you know!

We're enjoying the slow pace and are looking forward to catching up on some reading as well as much needed rest. We hope to visit an incredible park with huge fountains of water that have laser displays and synchronized music ...it's quite romantic, I must add. We've also made reservations to see a free play tomorrow night. I know we'll enjoy these few days together and it will be a wonderful opportunity to renew our commitment to the Lord and to each other.
