Back from Miskolc

I got into the Miskolc orphanage from Budapest around 10pm on Tuesday night. I got cleaned up and said hi to some of the kids who were watching Signs in Hungarian. Then it was off to bed. Over the next two days, we did activities with the younger kids who just wanted to beat me up, make me do handstands and backflips, and shoot me with water guns. It was a lot of fun. I really connected with the younger kids and I miss having them around already. I shared a story about my life and how John 10:10 relates to it. (That's the one about Life to the Full). We slept downstairs in the basement which was pretty fun!

Today, Friday, we were at Russ' house in Mikapercs, a village of about 4000. The morning was pretty relaxed. We met the Mosquitoes baseball team (about 10 teenagers) at a local pizzaria and hung out there for a couple hours. Then we headed to the Mikapercs church to practice a skit for the village (they have summer performances in the village square and we had a few minutes to promote the upcoming baseball and English camps). It was pretty amusing. We hung out there for a little bit and now we're back at Russ' house kicking back (although I really want to go for a coffee!). It's almost 7pm here, everyone is pretty tired, but I'm wide awake (maybe it's because of the Flying Energy drink I had earlier). I'll check back in soon!
