Mexico City (Day 5)

Today we worked with the children, as usual, but I wanted to show a different side of things than what the prior day’s pictures showed. I wanted to show what goes on behind the scenes, once all of the games are over and the kids are being taught God’s Word out of the book of Daniel. The games bring them in, and with God’s help they all sit attentively listening. Then the ladies proceed to do crafts with the children.

Afterward, we all proceeded down the busy streets of Mexico City to one of the many museums available. This particular one showed the ancient history of Mexico, and also the “history” of mankind. This is just a small example of what they teach in the schools there, and they are very steeped in the teachings of evolution. As a matter of fact they had a replica of “Lucy” (One of the missing links that has been disproved quite a long time ago, but you can’t tell them that). I thought the picture of Lucy behind the glass was cool, because I didn’t notice until I looked closer that you can see Jimmy and Savanna in the reflection of the glass (They were in front of me when I took the picture). Outside of the museum the girls “enjoyed” some cotton candy. “Enjoyed” is in quotes because after they bought it, they realized it tasted like the insulation that it looked like!

From there we proceeded to the ice skating rink, where everyone enjoyed themselves. We only ended up with one person having a sprained ankle. I also enjoyed taking pictures of Levi breaking the sound barrier on his skates, as he carefully negotiated the railing :o)

Oh, I had to put the very last picture in here just to let Allen know that thanks to the U.S of A, we have solved the problem of not being able to find a good cup of coffee in Mexico City!
