Week 23 - All Men on this Island are Just Cats

The subject line is something Sister Behling said a while ago. It's true.

Monday: Christmas

"I cried when I saw the horse calendar. My heart exploded!"

 Tuesday: Call home

Taking a minute to be sad about her dog.

Wednesday: Language Day

With the Doses family

Gathered around the Sakau rock

Thursday: District Meeting & Exchange to Uh!

Trekking through the jungle with Sister Milne

Friday: Trip to Doctors office (very sketchy. Walked in through the back. Doctor just looked at my elbow at the front desk and then told me to get some drugs. wrote it on a paper. then asked for my name and info. whaaaaatt....) White Cali style beach bums told us to follow them to the resturant in town during a traffic jam. Very hilarious.

Very cool red bark on this tree.

Saturday: Service but no ones home so just threw away trash we gathered around their 'house'. Pretty sad set up actually.

Service with our machetes

Sunday: Funday

Celebrating New Years by burning Sister Behling's old ratty t-shirt

And drinking a bowl of Martinelli's cider

For New Years here everyone just gets drunk at 10 o'clock in the morning and hits on you. Also at night everyone just runs around screaming and hitting pots and pans and making loud noise. I'm not even exaggerating. We just went home early last night because EVERYONE was drunk.

Now it's P-day and people are still running around. But not a store in town is open. Not a one. Only one gas station was open, but thankfully it was open!

I'm gonna go now. Hope you have a happy new years! And love one another!

Love,
Sister Felt
