Poland...Day 3 (Translation)

Today has been a very good day...so far!

I have thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. Not that I haven't of other days...but there was a LOT of driving involved in the past few days...and being 6'4" makes those drives uncomfortable. Oh well...

We got a chance to sleep in a little this morning...seven thirty was much better than five thirty! Ate a quick breakfast...cold cuts with bread and jam...and then loaded the bus to head to church inside the city. Bob has us split into two groups...one of the projects we are working on this week is a promotional project for this church. Very cool church...modern and laid back. Katlyn and I got to film all of the children and their activities (playing outside on the playground!) and Ayla, JT, and Joe shot stuff on the inside...worship...speaking...fellowship...the good church stuff like that!

Katlyn and I got the good job...a very good time. Got some really good shots, awesome pics and amazing footage. We ended up meeting a little guy who spoke English (thankfully) and Polish. Katlyn has a little pocket translation guide...so we begain to clean up on our Polish (more like learn for the first time!). David...very cute little kid...wish I could bring him back as my little brother...helped us with our Polish skills. Gave us all the correct forms and sounds...the nicest little kid! What a rockstar.

We got back to camp and ate lunch...the biggest meal of the day here in Poland. We had some kind of soup...lots of Tomatoe in it...pretty good. We then had a beef cutlet...cucumbers in something along the lines of a cream...really good...and finsihed with potates and juice.

After lunch...we headed to the volleyball court! We got it on...fo sho! It was team Indiana verses team Arizona (even though JT is from Missouri...we addopted him for the game). First game went to team Indy...second game to team AZ...and to clench the title...team Indy came out on top! (That's what she said!) It was a very heated match...lots of trash talk. An awesome day.

From there, we headed down to the beach and the river...went for a little swim. Cold at first...but once we got in and got going it felt really good. Se then showered up and that is how I got to this porch overlooking the camp...very good sights here.

Our day is far from over...we have worship tonight and dinner...and so much more. The basketball camp is in full swing...we start our project (TBD) tomorrow! Can't wait to get going.

Pics are coming up tonight...I have a little more editing to do...and then we will be good to upolad!

Enjoy the stories.
