So to start off with this post, I'm thinking I will start with some pictures. Comment me if you like them =]
That is me on the way home from the hospital. It took about 10 minutes to walk from the hospital back to the home where I was staying. 
This is the famous bridge that connects YWAM to Roaring Creek. I am now afraid of this bridge since my leg went though it, so I walk extra slow now.. aha. I am the one in the blue on the bridge.
This is me in my scrubs. They were very comfortable. I liked them a lot. I kinda wish I still had them.
This was one of my last days at the hospital. I really liked that bench. It was pretty comfy.
This is me looking at the ocean on top of one of the ruins. It was very pretty up there.
This is where the girls slept for 2 nights. then we went to the principles house and slept on his roof. That was an experience. ALSO!
Well there are two new videos,
Week Three
And Week Four
They are really good. Check them out..
I just wanted to start off by saying I am sorry that I haven't posted anything recently. I have finished my placement at the hospital. Last week we went to Corozal, and we painted 2 buildings, and ripped down half a building at the local high school. That five day trip was quite an experience, no showers, sleeping on the floor of a hallway, without any real doors, and living out of a bus. It was a good experience though. It taught me to be grateful for things that I never really thought about before.. like a shower. aha.
I will write more later!
HAPPY 25th ANNIVERSARY MOM AND DAD!!
I am sorry I am not there. =[

Hey alexandrea, it's James. Those pictures are awesome :P
I wouldn't trust that bridge either...did they fix what you broke? aha, hope they weren't mad.
The stone bench doesn't look all that comfy. I guess you take what you can get? :P I can only imagine when you sleep in your own bed again.
That veiw is amazing.
5 days without a shower? I'm sure you still smelt like a rose afterwards, though.
Anyway, I'll talk to you later! Glad you're having a good time.

Dear Alexandrea
I watched the videos. I thought they were good. I think it was pretty crazy for somebody to hold a spider on their arm but it was cool.
How hot is the sun there? Was it hotter than the sun here? Did you hold onto a tarantula?
From your friend Olivia Hayes
Hi A.
Wow! From the looks of those videos you guys are having a great time down there. Do you actually do any work at that hospital? Or is it all hanging out at the beach, tours to nature preserves and eating ice cream?
I'm looking forward to finding out what you think of your trip when you come back home. Ethan thinks that you're in a parent-free heaven. The videos don't show many adults and he thought that maybe you guys were all on your own.
Take care. Keep smilin'. Take a shower ;)
Chris & Lisa.
So, how's my girl? I know I've been chatting with you but it's not the same as being right next to you.
So Alexandrea just another reminder because you keep asking, we fly out of Buffalo on Sat. Apr. 21 at 6:30a.m. to our first stop in Charlotte, North Carolina and we'll be landing in Belize City at 11a.m. We'll get our rental car and make our way to the YWAM base. It will take us about 2 hours so we should be seeing you around 1:30 in the afternoon. I CAN'T WAIT.
I've still got packing to do, mostly stuff for you and the items that I've bought to leave in Belize for the orphange and the schools. We're not bringing too much as I hear it's Africa hot down there - mostly a bathing suit I guess.
Well, like I said last night.....get working on your blog. Everyone is asking about you and we all want to keep up-to-date with Belize life.
See you soon, Love Mom
