Good morning from the largest city in the US of A. yesterday was a bit of a interesting day; all of the groups carried on with their usual activities of teaching English, hanging out with pastor Botto, (who was very sick but never for a minute did it slow him down) or putting some finishing touches on our construction projects. After lunch we were treated to a visit at a mosque in Queens. It was the largest one in the entire city and had an operating school for ages k to 12. It was really interesting and informative our tour guide stood up to the challenge and put his best foot forward and answered all of our questions. After the tour we prepared to go to our next activities; the three groups were each teaching english at different locations but we suffered our first vehicle related incident we received a cruel lesson in parking when our van was towed away to some addressless location which occupied Scott and Joy for the rest of the night. in the end our van stayed in the impound and we received a new one from the rental company. Scott and Joy said they felt like they were in the amazing race. everything else went smoothly and more or less as planned. His grace is sufficient.
Seth.
