June 2008 - Dental Missions in Equador and Galapagos

We spent a week outside of Shell, Ecuador in the jungle doing dental missions with Missionary Ventures. Amy and I did lots of extractions, tried lots of interesting food, including guinea pig, and spread the Gospel to the Kichwa indians. We had a fantastic group and really a stellar trip overall. We visited the Andes, the Amazon, the equator, and Nate Saint's home and plane. After the mission trip, Amy and I flew to the Galapagos islands for a few days. That was pretty incredible as well. We saw tons of penguins, sea lions, marine iguanas, giant land tortises, blue footed boobies, and I even dove with hammerheads.

Hello the Bonhams!
I am your neighbour...well, not really...
I clicked on 'NEXT BLOG' at the top of my blog and yours was the next one along ... Now .. I know that this is all random and that we're not REALLY neighbours... but it amused me for 30 seconds to think that we were - and waht great neighbours you are! Teeth, missions, guinea pigs and land tortoises! How mundane my life is by comparison. Anyway - I wish you both much luck and pop round anytime you run out of sugar!
