Wednesday: I had just finished my walk with Raquel we started taking a ton of photos using my mac.... no specific reason, we were just bored.
Dont ask.... |
Look at my Muscle! |
LOOK AT HER MUSCLE |
Headless me! |
After taking all of these pictures, we tried to sing a song, Revelation Song, which didn't work out at all since I could only sing it in english, and she could only sing it in Spanish! Lesson to learn? Never sing a song in a different language from what your used to unless you have lyrics in front of you!
WE GOT GABBIE!!!!! SHE IS ALIVE!!!!! After Gabbie's plane was delayed another two hours, we waited at the airport for her arrival, after like.... a bazillion hours... more like two hours.... She successfully made it and we were on our way to start living life, in the Pura Vida mode!
Thursday: Waking up with Gabbie is a BLAST! with Gabbie's major jet lag she was more awake than ever and just wanted to do crazy things and dance! When I say dance, I mean more like.... running around in circles and jumping up and down, it released my inner child, since I would never do something like that alone, I mean come on! How do you dance like crazy alone??? We decided it would be a wonderful idea to make a dance video of our awesomeness! So we took like 8 or so video clips of us doing random dances, chose a song, by the way the song that was chosen was AMAZING! And randomly spread our video clips around to make an epic Dance Video, In case you haven't seen it already, here it is!
Since we couldn't get the video to work on my mac, I can only give you the video link. For lunch, me and Gabbie got our schedules for the month, let me just say that Saturday the 19th is my only "Day Off" but on the schedule we have stuff that isn't a day off, yet we still get to visit the beach and a natural spring pool! After lunch we all played a game called Super Banco, which means Super Bank. This was pretty much a Costa Rican monopoly! Exact same layout except the cities and locations on the game board were different, we then played Uno, which surprised me that they called it Uno.... if in english the card game is called Uno, then shouldn't it be called One here in Costa Rica?
Later in the day, Gabbie, Paster Luis and myself all decided to go running, why did I ever decide this? I don't know! But I do need the exercise.... Paster Luis took us to a Coffee farm where they grow coffee beans, it was extremely beautiful, I have never seen anything this gorgeous! However it was a very, VERY long trail! After about 2 kilometers of straight running, I was dying! AND WE WERE OLNY HALF WAY DONE! Paster Luis decided we should go back the other way since I was out of breath, however if we were half way.... does it really make a difference whether we go ahead or back the way we came? Obviously this running was nothing to Gabbie, and Paster Luis runs all the time.... So I was gasping for air, literally picking up my knees with my hands to take a step, it was exhausting! When we got back from the running I was actually excited to take a cold shower! <--- THATS A FIRST!
Once I had finished cleaning up we practice a skit, it's the "Everything" skit, I'm Jesus in it! Sorry Nato, you've been replaced! Gabbie is once again just Gabbie, it's almost like we can restart the "Adventures of Gabbie and Jesus" skits!
Priscilla took me and Gabbie shopping, including a candy store, the candy store was really interesting, she got this chocolate covered jelly that I thought was going to be disgusting but it really wasn't that bad. Also since there is no "Victoria Secret" in Costa Rica, she got lotion that was nearly the same brand (kind of like the Victoria Secret brand of CR) for $17 dollars! Priscilla told me that they are having a Valentines Day party at the church and she wanted me to sing a romantic/love song, I asked Gabbie if she'd do it with me, so we started looking for songs that we could possibly sing such as, "Everything" by Michael Buble, and "Can you feel the love tonight" by Elton John. At the end of the day, I was extremely sore from the running and Gabbie's jet lag got to her again and was in desperate need of sleep! So we went to bed early-ish.
Today: Me and Gabbie woke up planning on doing our daily exorcise, we were both sore from running so just decided to take a walk in downtown Grecia! We walked past the landmark of Grecia, Cathedral de la Mercedes, it's a big red Catholic Cathedral, it's very beautiful.

When finishing our walk we went to eat breakfast and talk to Paster Luis, today is our first day of work!!! It's not hard labor, we just need to come up with Craft ideas and Game Ideas for the VBS (Vacation Bible School) we are going to on Monday. And that's what we are doing right now, well that's what Gabbie's doing right now, I'm currently typing in my blog! But I guess I should go help the Gabster!
Until next time...
Pura Vida
