We Reached the Halfway Mark

Hey here's the latest update on the events of our trip.

March, 2
Today we visited Jubilee Partners. We ate lunch with them and took a tour of their wonderful and expansive organic gardens. After lunch, we went to the school and played games with some of the younger refugees from Burma.

March, 4
We went to Greensboro, NC today and helped some Amish put down the sub flooring to their new house. We also walked around the beautiful country side and went into a quaint Amish country store.

March, 6
We traveled on to Lancaster, PA to visit another Amish family. Bob Neuhauser brought us on a tour of the countryside and an Amish family's huge farm. They showed us their home and all of their animals. They also answered the many questions we had for them about their way of life.

March, 8
Today, we went to Fort Meade near Washington D.C. They gave us a tour and then we ate lunch in the cafeteria. We talked with the soldiers during lunch and asked them questions about what it was like to live on the base. Then we returned to Harry and Emily Volz's house where we are staying. They made us a delicious dinner and dessert.

March, 9
Still in D.C., we woke up early and took a tour of the White House and met up with the Power Trip for a little while. After that, we wandered around the city and some of us went to the Holocaust Museum.

Today, we traveled to Philly and did service work for the South Jersey Food Bank by packing lunches for their Kids Packs program. We packed over 340 lunches. Tonight, we will be staying with the Murray family in Collingswood, NJ and enjoying a wonderful dinner of fish tacos.

Till next time...
