Sorry it's been so long since I've updated this, but we didn't have internet for a bit. So, much has happened since my last update, I don't even know where to begin.... Well first off I just want to ask you to pray for my team. Several us have been sick lately and while we're all on the mend we need all the prayers we can get!
On a happier note though, I love it here! Don't get me wrong, once it's time to go home I think I'll be ready if nothing else just because there are so many people I miss, but if I ever get the opportunity to come back here I think I would. People here, while frustrating at times, are so very friendly. I have made several Senegalese friends who I will be very sad to leave when it comes time, they are all such sweethearts. Speaking of which we're having a dance party at our hotel tomorrow that I'm pretty excited about! It should be fun to teach them some of our dances from back home, mainly the Cupid Shuffle and maybe the Cha cha slide.
My team and I are having so much fun, minus the sickness, here. It's a pretty exciting place to be. Last Saturday we went to a sketchy amusement park to celebrate one of the guy's birthday. We had so much fun at this park that probably would have been shut down were it in America. One of my favorite things there were the bumper cars. They went so fast and with no seat belts of anything like it to hold you in the car it was very interesting. I can't wait till I can upload my pictures and put them on here! I also rode a mechanical bull and managed to stay on for a lot longer than I thought I would, though I did eventually fall off...
Like I said I love it here, but please continue to pray for my team, especially the guys right now. Out of 10 guys about 5 of them aren't feeling well, so just pray that they are strengthened and start feeling better soon. That's all for now! Hopefully I'll update this again soon and tell you all about the dance party and other fun weekend plans!
