Mission trip day 1

Well I'm not really one for blogging but I'll speak my mind about the first day. (don't worry my mind isn't a dark and gloomy place! It just usually makes no sense!) The car ride was long, and although I can almost never fall asleep in moving vehicles I found myself dozing quite often. We took 3 vans and I hear there was a different experience in each van. In my van with, Maymi and Riley, the ride consisted of sleep and hearing the radio play the same songs no matter which channel you turned it to! I heard of The Lord of the Rings van and the dodgeball van being more lively, but hey you need to sleep sometimes! I personally am surprised at how absolutely beautiful it is here. We are a bloc from the beach and the rooms in the church have AC! It's much more comfortable than I expected. I have a good feeling about this group as none of us seem to be shy and I feel like we're going to work well together to really help some people. I'm happy to be here and happy to go to bed now! In case it doesn't say who I am on the blog, This is Matt Garrity! One of the only 2 men on the mission trip. Peace be with you first church!
