"Ace, is that you?"

[Picks up telephone] We're in. I'm sorry for not getting in before this. I've been concentrating on keeping both my roommates and myself reletively rested and refreshed. We're at the Hyodo place right now and most of the youth are watching "The Office". (This is why I'm a Lynx.) I just wanted to say a few things about the past few days. On Saterday, after we left the church, one of our escorts walked up to me and asked me not to forget him. I had to admit that I probably would, so he told me that his name is Josh and asked me again not to forget him. I don't think I will. Not this time. Yesterday, on Sunday, I met the man who lead Dan, Daniel, and myself around Satelite. He called me Daniel and I'm not sure if its because he thought I was the other guy or because I was playing Daniel from "Daniel and the Lion's Den". Either way, I was forced to admit that I have forgotten his name. I didn't have time to relearn it because we had to skedaddle for service. Kristine had lost her voice so she was out of commision. As we stoodup to show the congrecation our handmotions, I felt someone tap me on the shoulder and say, "Go on up and help." So I did. Someone has posted photos of how that went. Today was an off day, so we went shopping and fed some giraffes. Kristine, Dakota, Matt, and a few others actually kissed some. I think I'll stick with feeding them for now, which I actually did this year. I think I better quite spilling the beans on this team for now and sign off. HOOAH!!!
