OK, so it was a fairly interesting, if slow, day. We had a late night pharmacy experience on Friday night where Dr. John, Chip, Vicki, Joanna, and Janet unpacked and put up all of the medicine that we brought. Martha, and I (Chris) helped, not that we did much besides asking one of the other four, "What's this for?" Saturday morning we packed up three trunks full of stuff and headed on out. It was a slow morning and when we came back from lunch Vicki felt ill. Popular opinion is Altitude Sickness. I guess it's a good time to fell sick when you have a doctor and nurses of all stripes at your disposal. With Vicki laid up Chip took over pharmaceutical duties with Martha as his intrepid assistant. The afternoon was a little busier and went by fast. After we were through and packed up, several of us went to downtown Cajamarca for a quick shopping trip while the rest of us rested up. It's amazing how physically exausted you can get when trying to communicate in another language. Dinner was great as always and we'll have church tomorrow.
We're thankful that Vicki seems to be getting better but she still needs prayer.

Today was Brayden's birthday party and the entire family wanted to know all about the mission trip. They wanted to know where you were in Peru and that you made it safely. Sounds like things are already very busy, hope everything goes well and HAVE FUN!
Vicki, Hope and pray you are feeling much better Sunday. Tank up on Nancy's good cooking and of course, my standard advice for whatever ails you is: drink plenty of fluids...usually that means water, but in your case, mate de coca...ummm.
