Hello friends. We are glad you are reading our blog. Welcome.
This is the last freakin night here in Bolivia. We are flying out to Santa Cruz and then to Miami tomorrow and I (Cullen) am probably going to sleep most of the way. Yay! Bailey is here too, and she says that she is sad to leave Bolivia behind, and return to her daily Canadian life. The rest of the team seems to feel mostly the same way...except for John. Yet again, he feels indifferent. Hmmm...odd. This trip has truly been amazing for all of us, and despite the high altitude...perhaps too high...we have survived this boot camp simulation. My iPod is charging beside me, and I have alot of time to blow. Anyways, we played some volleyball with the locals this afternoon (locals being the church youth), and then we went to a pizza joint and had yummy food. Ironically, we had no pizza. I had some sketchy tasting, yet somewhat satisfying ravioli. Bailey, John, Allison, Sharon, and Sheldon all had some even more sketchy tasting empinadas. Don´t ask. John felt like poo afterwards (no pun intended), Bailey felt like she ate a big blob of blobbyness that wasn´t settling well, and Allison...well Allison just ate way too much. Afterwards, we headed home and were weldomed by some visitors who shared their testimonies with us. One´s name was Wendy, the other´s name was Floridia. Long story short, we don´t hate testimonies, but some are just too way freakin long when you wanna go to bed. Then we went out and did some stuff and then came home. And here we are late at night in Bolivia, about 8 hours until we leave on the plane, and home just seems that much closer. I miss playing drums. I also miss playing guitar. I also miss my roommate David. I also miss Martin Bauer. I also miss Greg Rokos and his prego wife Dena. I also miss Chelsea, she´s neat. I also miss David´s emo-ness. I also miss Carolyn Olson and her sweet Carolyn-ness. I also miss snow...I think. I also miss my new pair of corderoy pants. I also miss the mighty Hagen D-Group. I also miss turning 25...wait, that hasn´t happened yet. I also miss Merchant´s (that one isn´t even funny). I think that´s all I miss.

I am the staff person who is not so intelligent- a senior moment I suspect. My purpose for the info on Friday was to let you know that you DO NOT have the whole week off. I did not however think the schedule through well enough before posting it on the blogs. My apologies!

You won't be missing the snow when you get here and realize that it is stormy and -44 with the wind chill. Sorry to burst the happy bubble of "things you are looking forward to". Glad that you seem to have had an amazing adventure.
