Entrada (Saturday)

Because we didn't have wifi until the very end of the trip I was not able to blog while we were in Panama. This blog is now more of an overview of each day: the things we encountered, the people we met, and the ways God worked in our lives. 

On Saturday morning our whole team (minus Ed and Marlin) met at Trinity very early in the morning to catch our flight to Atlanta and then on to Panama. Our first flight to Atlanta was delayed slightly, but other than that everything went without a hitch.

We got to the Tocumen airport and met up with Rhett, the man in charge of our travels for the week, who also oversees a lot of the mission projects in Panama. He took us to have dinner at a really yummy burger place called 'California Burger'. They served some of the best hamburgers we'd ever eaten. 

After dinner we were taken the rest of the way to the place we would be staying Saturday night. Our home for the night was a camp in the middle of the woods that had no electricity. The bathrooms were a complete shock to some of us, but it was only preparation for what was coming! 

Saturday was a great start to a really wonderful week!
