Davis

Well,

this is Harley.

Harley is a 6 inch long Bicher fish.

He swims, but also uses his pectoral fins like a person doing the breathstroke.

His species is considered to be one of our ancestors, according to evolutionists.

Mexico Nursery

Hello!!

Sorry for being so late in my next installment, so much for "Weekly."

My schedule is so hectic these days.

All right.

Here are some pictures of the nursery at the orphanage from Mexico.

1st and 2nd John

Welcome to basecamp!!! This is a picture of the facilities that we were given to use as our restrooms. Look carefully and you will notice a panda. Also, the two bathrooms (the doors are made up of the eyes) are given really cool names: 1st and 2nd John!!

Señorita No

Once we arrived we started to play with the kids, and one girl in particular hung out with me.
Actually, she was kinda mean to me when I first woke up. She refused to call to me the whole time.
EVERY time I asked, "¿Cuál es tú nombre?" (Which means "What is your name?") she just said "NO!" So finally, I gave up asking and simply stated, "NO es tú nombre." (No is your name) No she cried. Yes I cried. NO! YES! NO! YES! NO! YES! For the rest of the week we called each other by the name of "NO!" In the picture, my friend Stacy, is playing with NO.

The Flat Tire

So, on the trip down to Mexico, I was placed in a van that was caravaning with the cargo trailer. The trailer was being pulled by a pick-up truck. Anyway, on the way down, on a huge highway, the truck hit the cable for a big semi-truck. For those of you in Thailand who don't know what semi's look like, imagine the biggest truck you've seen and multiply its mass and speed and weight by 3. So my van is cruising behind this truck and trailer when there is a huge *POOM!* sound. The rear tire of the pick up had hit a cable that is used to tie things onto the big rigs. The cables hook tore right through the rubber of the pick-up's tire. I mean, the thing was ripped all the way across and all the way through. Luckily, the pick-up's driver had a spare and was able to switch tires no sweat. We made it to Mexico.

Mexico!!!

Hola mi amigos!

This post is all about my mission trip to Mexico
This past week I was in the beautiful town of La Mision in Baja, Mexico.
I, and about 77 other people from my church, University Covenant Church, traveled down to this down to work with an orphanage called Door of Faith, or Puerta de Fay.
It was a wonderful experience as we served the community by delivering food packages, building houses, making breakfast, and other things. Also, we played with the kids at the orphanage.
The orphanage has about 100 kids. The kids are allowed to stay at the orphanage as long as they are going to school or working.

Welcome!!!

Greetings friends!

This blog has been set up so that you may observe and learn about my life here in Davis, California.

For the next few weeks, I shall attempt to explain the good town of Davis and her university, University of California, Davis.

Thanks!
