Here is our team this morning. We had a very long day yesterday with delays and other problems. Two team members had cancelled flights and did not get here. They will come on a later trip.
We had a long delay at immigration as thousands arrived just ahead of us. It is spring break and lots of groups are coming down now. The medicines had not received official approval so we declared them and prepared to pay the tax. After inspecting them, the customs people said to go ahead-no problem.
We were met by Jorge and Marcos with a bus/police escort. We enjoyed visiting with them on the trip up the hill. We stopped for PUPUSAs and had terrific service and food. Arrived at La Palma at 6:30, visited briefly with Trinidad, got some supplies from storage, and then came on to Ocotepeque.
The local doctor said he is the authority on who can do medical work and what medicines can come into Honduras, so we did not request permission in advance. He told us if there was a problem at customs he would come OK it. There was not a problem. We arrived at the hotel about 8:30. The town was alive with a carnival, and all but me went out for some fun. I slept.
This morning we enjoyed breakfast in leisure fashion and will sort meds and do home visits this morning. The worship here is at 5 pm and we look forward to that.
All are healthy and happy!
