I have eaten a lot of things on this trip that I never dreamed of eating and most of them I don't even know the name. For instance, this fruit. The outside is hard, like nut and when you peel it it cracks like a nut. Inside is a soft white fruit that has the consistency of a grape and then there is a really hard nut-like seed in the center. It is really good and sweet. Not much happens when we are at sea like now but we arrive in our first of three destinations in Indonesia tomorrow morning (Tuesday) and will actually have several surgeries that day. As usual, I am excited about our work here and continue to appreciate how blessed I am to be a part of this Remember that I will blog as much as possible but the next 16 days will be busy so no promises. I miss you all.....
That looks like Lichi! I love that fruit and buy it here canned, I bet it is much better in its original form! I wanted to tell you that Vuki passed away when he was in Arizona. They had his funeral today and Lini's husband and son went. He will be buried in Hawaii near his daughter. Vonita sends her love and will visit during Christmas and will let you know when she is here. Lini sounds very tired, she is working, but we have been so worried about her. I don't want her to overdo but she feels that she needs to be here for us. She sends her love and wants you to know she is getting better and is exercising. WE LOVE YOU, how have we made it this long without you?
