The North Coast

Hi yous! (That's like the Irish version of ya'll)

Ireland is pretty great. We've been having a lot of crack. Apparently that's an Irish term that can mean either "fun" or it can be used in a sentence like "What's the crack?" which is like "what's up?" People basically say a lot of weird things here. Also, this keyboard is really hard to type on because the left shift key is smaller so I keep hitting \ instead of shift. Also, the quotation mark is on the 2-key and the @ symbol is where the quotation mark should be. It's surprisingly annoying.

But beyond that, I've just been very busy. Yesterday we had training with all the people who are doing summer outreach teams which was cool because we got to meet a lot of people we'll be on teams with later on in the summer. Jet lag is pretty rough though. Definitely almost fell asleep during a few seminars.

Today, we went to Knock Presbyterian Church which is Graeme's home church  (Graeme is one of our main coordinator guys) and then we went to a barbeque with a bunch of people our age (Graeme's small group). We went up to the North Shore (the uppermost shore of Ireland) which is where Giant's Causeway is. We didn't get to see it, but we are hoping to go back. We got really good ice cream. I was suprised at how pretty the beaches were. Like there was sand and everything. But the waves were crazy. It was very intense.

Here are some pictures!


Here's the team plus our new friend Fiona who we'll be serving with next week. She is fantastic.





Well, we start our first camp tomorrow from 6-8pm. Love you guys!! Cheers!
