Tripping....but not falling

So this past week has been a whirlwind of trips! I went to the mainland on a factory trip Wednesday and Thursday, then went to Hong Kong on Friday on my day off (and met up with a friend from UOP- see picture on left)...then Saturday I went across the border to ZhuHai for some shopping and hanging out with friends....then did another rural trip Sunday-Tuesday. I don't recommend traveling like this. I've had enough squatty potties and hard mattresses for a while. BUT I feel that the Lord has really blessed all of the trips I went on, and I'm so thankful for the opportunity to go on each trip.

This is a picture of the "pharmacy" at our clinic....Yes, it's a table covered in bags of medicine. Though it looks chaotic, we did have it somewhat organized. I filled the meds and told Jack (the guy on my left) how the patient was to take it...then he translated into Chinese for the patient. The lady in white actually was there to translate from mandarin into the local dialect. I am so thankful to be heading back to the US where I can speak directly to the patient...in English.




This picture is of me and Benjamin (one of the Residents) on the merry-go-round that was outside of our hotel. It was basically the same as Disneyland.








Dear Esther Joy, this picture is for you, since you never see cows and have no idea what they look like.
This is a picture of David and his cow. He was so excited to take a picture with it. I forgot that in Macau there is really no room for farms, so native Macau people probably never see cows. It was just very entertaining for me coming from good ol' Gasport, NY.



I'm heading back for the States on Saturday....I can't believe the time has gone by so fast. I'm so thankful for this amazing opportunity to do a rotation overseas. I definitely have more stories than I wrote about in this blog...actually I wasn't that great at blogging (sorry if any of you have been checking a lot).
