Waiting

Grrr. It's Sunday, and no packet from the Peace Corps this weekend. I think this packet we're waiting for is supposed to have a bunch of info. on our country, packing lists, passport forms ( we get new Peace Corps passports), descriptions of our positions, maps, etc.

So far, we can hardly find anything that has been published about traveling to Paraguay that is not already part of another bigger book about South America.

Please, oh please be here on Monday.

So, at last we receive word regarding our fate with the Peace Corps. On Thursday, our placement officer phoned Chris to inform him of where we will be living the next two years.

Drum roll, please........

We're moving to South America!! Paraguay, to be more exact. We will be leaving on 9/25 for staging for 3 days in Miami. Then it's off to the capitol city of Asuncion where training will start.

Yes, you are probably asking yourself, "What's up with Paraguay?" Well, we don't know a whole lot about it either, except that there are tons of Mennonites who settled there, and that it's super expensive to fly home.

Fun.
