Day 6 - Thursday - Camelote, Cows and Travel to Placencia

This morning the medical team will have a half-day clinic here at the BTC for the village of Camelote.  This is usually a busy clinic with people of the village and the nearby school coming in.

Greg will be going to the Central Farm to breed some cows.  He had hoped they would have 100 cows ready, but the number is much lower.  One of the realities of working through a government ministry is that good ideas become tied up in bureaucracy and communication breaks down.  Nonetheless, great things can happen through small steps.

After lunch, we will be packing up and leaving for an R&R day in Placencia on the south-central coast of the county.  A stop on the way will be at the Marie Sharp's processing plant.  Marie Sharp is the most popular brand of hot sauce in Belize.  Habenero pepper sauce is popular and is on the tables of almost every restaurant in Belize.  Steve Little arranged the tour - yes you read that right!

Friday will be our day of rest and Saturday will be our travel day back to Charlotte and then Marion.

Keep us in your prayers for safe travel and rest over the next two days.  We are blessed to have been here this week and we are looking forward to returning to our families and being with our church family on Sunday.

If we have Internet access in Placencia the blog will be updated.
