It took a lot to get this far, let me tell you. Packing is never fun. Packing a suitcase for a mission trip and keeping it under 40 pounds is insanity. It's winter in Peru, so we had to pack warmer clothes. Also, we had to pack peanut butter for sandwiches, costumes for the drama, and other things for the Peruvian children. This took weeks to gather and an entire day to put into suitcases. But we did it!
Yesterday morning, we woke up early (eww) and went to the dentist, then we headed to West Palm Beach to see Mom's childhood best friend (who is super amazing). We went out to dinner at this neat restaurant called Old Key Lime House. Supposedly, it's the oldest waterfront restaurant in Florida. It doesn't look very old because the outside is lime green. Then, we played our favorite game, Dutch Blitz. If you don't know what this game is, do yourself a favor and check it out. Savannah and Mom's friend crushed Mom and I. We may or may not have gone to bed very late.
I woke up this morning at 10:40 (oops). Mom, Savannah, and I went to the beach for a couple of hours. We walked along the water and collected shells, then Savannah and Mom built a sandcastle.
Now we're headed to Ft. Lauderdale to eat (obviously most important. Lol.) and spend the night with Mom's college friend.
