Only 2 days until we leave for Hawaii and we are really getting excited! I am also excited about being able to write about our adventures and have you all share the trip with us

We will be leaving Phoenix on Monday morning October the 19th and will be in Honolulu by 1:00 ...

... a monkey, a lizard and of course… a butterfly. I mean, I did see all of those things there. But, I should have just left the tiles at the rain forest gift shop. But… there was this lady from Trinidad talking about something and buying jewelry and I couldn't really understand her and I got confused and 20 dollars later…I have these random tiles that I will claim I will used for arts and crafts, but will probably just keep in a drawer ...

... at the airport was actually quite pleasant since P came down to keep me company. In all the times I've been at this airport, I never knew there was a walkway between terminal 2 and 3. Nice to know that in the future I can just walk to a much nicer terminal. Also surprising was that Paradise Bakery was open despite constant terrorist alarms going off. Seeing the police ...

Each team member has fifty pounds of medical equipment and medicines, including some over the counter meds, to take along with personal belongings to work in clinic each day and deal with the very cool temperatures (at least for zonies). I've packed and repacked four times trying to get it all under the weight and size restrictions for both airlines and enable me to handle it all on my own as we set up clinic and travel to a new location daily.

Day 19: September 20, 2009 –Phoenix, AZ

Sunday morning Christine and I had our breakfast delivered to our casita in an old-style wicker picnic basket like those you see in old Edwardian period movies. Then we visited the excellent Heard Museum which has exhibits and many, many artifacts about the native tribes of the Southwest. Much of the information is from the ...

... things to note - we got totally ripped off getting a ride to the cinema. We asked the hotel for a cab and after almost 30 minutes, finally a car showed up - not some beat up and cheap taxi we were expecting but some flash, shiny car equipped with a super jock wannabe behind the wheel. After all the $$$ we have blown so far, we were like WTF! This guy was running his own business driving people around from hotels and obviously had some scam with the hotel - we just wanted ...

... and training programs.

WHAT WILL WE BE DOING?: whatever we are asked to do, whether that is prayer walking in Cork, serving meals, setting up for conferences, or staffing the book store.

PLEASE PRAY: We would so appreciate your prayers for this ministry. We are looking for a team to pray for us daily. How can you pray? Please pray:

1. that everything we do or say, we do in the name of the Lord ...

... jeep-no luck. They came back-Charlie looked in the Jeep and there it was - under a permit on the dash! Darned new phones are just too small and slim! Off we went with the fold in the tailpipe rubbing against the inside of the tire the rest of the way. Charlie drove for a while-we had some really rough places to cross and had to go through Jacks Crack-about 1 inch wider than the vehicles! All got through it fairly easily, then on for a few miles of very rough stuff ...

... with the 300 odd heads that shared this experience. It was a major achievement and an experience that will serve me well in the years to come. As for the past and present. After graduation I departed LA with some friends from the class to the beaches of San Diego. So much more pleasant that LA. After 5 days on the **** we launched ourselves back into yoga and have been taking and teaching classes along the road. Supporting each other when ever it was ...
