This past Sunday we left La Ceiba and took a five hour bus ride to a mountain town called Pina Blanca, which translates into “White Pineapple” We are staying at the SDA Academy here. It it VERY conservative by American standards! They wake everyone, and I mean everyone (the dean comes by and knocks on everyones door until they get up and answer) up at 5am, breakfast starts at 6 and ends at 6:15am. The lunch bell is an air raid siren. Every day I wonder if there are Japanese Zeros coming in to bomb us…The electricity os only on from 6pm to 9:30pm, and that is when everyone is supposed to go to bed. Oh and the showers are about 50 degrees…we all have been adjusting somewhat and we are going to be here for the last three week of our stay in Honduras. Our plan is to have lecture, take tests, have 2 clinics, and to spend time with the orphanage kids here in town. We leave for the States on the 22nd of this month. Twenty-one more days to go…

That’s sounds like a military schedule! Wow, I cannot believe how tough it must be for those people to follow such a way of like all the time.
