CEBU

Things are feeling a bit more settled. I just tried to download some pictures, but it was taking so long that maybe I will try again later. Yesterday was a good day. We took the city tour. Marlys drove us around Cebu City looking at neighborhood, downtown and through a cemetary. It is helpful for me to revisit these place. It is also interesting to watch other people see some of the sights for the first time. We spent a few hours shopping (mostly for fabrice) for a few projects that need to be completed at the shelter.

We ate at a traditional Filipino restaurant last night. Lots of different and interesting foods. I loved it! And then... believe it or not, we girls (plus Marlys and another staff person) went to get massages. It was very interesting. Seems like the wrong thing to do while we are here, but we were just trying to go with the flow. Roselyn and Megan spent some time helping at the school and hanging out with kids. The children are so happy to see Roselyn. I brought one picture of me and my kids and they love to look at it. Lots of comments about how handsome Romeo is!!

Today we will have a meeting with Roselyn's older sister. Not sure what to expect! I will definitely take a few picture. She has two little children which we will meet as well. The staff is wonderful in trying to help us make those connections. It is almost surreal. Sorry about the pictures, but I just don't have a lot of time. I'll keep tryihg. Tonight we will finish out the day with tacos at Teacher Amy's house.
