The Day The Cycles Came To The Island

Braden and I went out for a cycle ride this afternoon and as we were putting around the island, a huge motorcycle came whizzing by us on one wheel. It about scared us to death as we dont see this everyday. We stopped and watched for awhile before going...

There’s Two Gelicas?

The other day we were having our morning devotional time and Angie was reading a story to the kids. It seemed as though the kids were not paying much attention and Angie noticed… like all mother’s do. Angie asked a few questions to see how much the kids were...

Can’t Think Of A Creative Title

I guess I have bloggers block. I know I need to post something here or a…. well you might just a…. I don’t know you might forget about us. So I’m sitting in my office trying to think of something to put on this thing. I guess I’ll just...

Below the Equator

We just spent the last week in the southern part of the islands. I think this was my first time to go below the equator. I got a certificate too! The islands were very nice, but looked pretty much the same as all the others. The people were very...

In Dubai

We are now in Dubai. The plane ride was shorter than expected and was uneventful. Because we left at 11:00pm from New York, we slept a good portion of the flight. We arrived in Dubai at 8:00pm (their time.) Our friends picked us up from the airport and we...

Catch Up Blog

The following blogs are an attempt to “catch up” with some of the activities before we left the USA. They are in no particular order, but in the order they come to my mind. I am sitting in the JFK airport waiting on our flight to Dubai. We arrived...

And We’re Off

Our visit in the USA was wonderful. It was great to see all of our family and friends. However, today is the day we begin our journey back to our home. We will be traveling for a couple of days and will spend some time in Dubai with some...
