So the bug had a bite and the wheels are now in motion. Well, kinda. We haven't quite reached discussion of the who/what/where yet but at least it's on the agenda for a good chunk of time next year. As long as the camera's in one hand, and my husband in the other, I'm ready already! In the meantime, a few images that bring back a truckload of memories. I can't believe this was almost 2 years ago...
Floating Islands, Lake Titicaca
The amazing Iguassu Falls
Marketplace in Sucre, Bolivia
Jesus loves the little children...
All the children of the world...
Red or yellow...
Black or white...
They're all precious in His sight...
Jesus loves the little children of the world.
I wonder how these kids are doing. The crops in Presto have been bad due to unfavourable rains this season and they have only enough to feed themselves. They're also trying to build the walls of their first church with mud-bricks that must each be shaped and set and moulded by hand. Their first attempts were also ruined by the rains and though weary, they persevere with what they have. Pray that they may be encouraged, and remain faithful to the one true God who loves them more than the human mind can comprehend.

I recently watched The Motorcycle Diaries - have you seen it? - and I'm hooked on the story and the continent. These photos remind me of the film, especially the last one ("Comeback", Guevara's canine gift to his girlfriend).. wish I could travel there!

oooh yeh I loved that movie too. After our travels, I watched it with Cynth on her recommendation and it was so much more enjoyable because of all the familiar sights. It's a great place to travel - so rich in history and culture and just so different to what we are used to.
