On April 17th we had a special visit from our bosses, Mark and Richard, Richard's lovely wife, Leslie and a new friend David. They arrived around noon and we headed to Choluteca. We got settled in and then headed to Orfilio's home for dinner. His wife, Naomi had prepared chicken tostatos for us along with a cookie for dessert. Naomi had the table nicely arranged with three tostatos on each plate accept for one plate there was only two. Leslie said she would like this plate with only two. So we all gathered around the table and said our blessing, compliments of Orfilio. We all got very quiet enjoying our delicious Honduran meal. Suddenly Leslie said, "Querro mos por favor". At the end of our meal Leslie enjoyed four of these tostatos. Well Mike would not be out done by Leslie so he as well ate four of them. Naomi was very pleased by everyones appetite. Thank you Orfilio and Naomi for such an amazing evening and your generous hospitality.
The next morning we got up and went to several different locations to give Mark and Richard an idea what a day is like for us here. David got a huge greeting from two of our little friends, Joline and Anna. We took Mark and Richard to one of the churches NCBM built around seven years ago. They were able to meet one of our oldest friends here in Honduras. This young man is 88 years old and loves to have his picture made. On the afternoon of the 18th we headed back to Zamorano. We returned to no electricity. So we headed across the street hoping for a chance to get some supper. We had dinner outside on a picnic table by candlelight. This was a nice way to end our day. We head back to the house to go over our day while still out of electricity. We had a candle burning and a huge lantern we have for occasions such as this. We played a couple of word games. Finally around nine that evening the lights came back on. The next morning we took our guests to the airport and bid them farewell until next time. It was a quick but eventful visit. Thank you David, Leslie, Mark and Richard for taking the time to come visit us in Honduras. God bless each of you and your families.
