The Confusion

                I ended my journey in Hawaii.  I got to stay in Hawaii for about a day and a half. On the full day we got the chance to go to Wakiki beach and then we also took a little walk in Diamond Head Crater. Pretty cool stuff. I will post a picture of the view.
                Now, we start my adventure to Ebeye! We boarded the plane in Hawaii at 5:30am Hawaiian time. The last we heard was that the principle of Ebeye would be picking us up from the airport. Ten Minutes before the plane departed, Emily and I started wondering which airport the principle would be picking us up from? The plane that we were on stops at a lot of different islands; the first stop was Majuro. Emily and I look at our ticket and realize that our ticket ended here. We were really confused,  because we should have gone onto the next island called Kwajelan. When we landed it was 8:30 am the next day, so we were just really confused and on top of that the United air flight staff said that we had to get off and you would have to buy another ticket. Still confused at what to do, we got off and stayed there, because we still weren’t sure if the principle would be picking us up there plus we knew our bags were going to be stopping here.
                Here we are wondering around this outdoor airport trying to figure out where to go. We came to the conclusion that we should call the SDA School here in Majuro. Lucky for us, the principle of Majuro was already coming to pick another missionary that was working on Majuro. We hoped on board of his truck and started our adventure back to the school of Majuro. But first, we stopped at the end of the airstrip and watched the plane take off. When they do, the air that the jets put out almost knocks you down. It was the coolest thing ever. He showed us around Majuro (very different than what I had pictured before I came over) and took us back to the school. So far I have been snorkeling, drank and ate a coconut, had curry for supper, saw the town of Delap, and now going to observe some classes being taught here in Majuro. I am still confused in which day it is, but God is good and we just had staff worship and now off to see more Majuro life! Until next time!!

  1. Did you guys get to email Ryan and find out why you're on Majuro and not Kwaj? Praying that it all works out...
