Conquering the Internet & Talking to Family

We said our goodbyes to our Canadian friends and then left to go run some errands. We drove back to the Blue Harbor Arboretum to buy more cashews, but it was closed. Then we stopped in at a place called Made in Roatan. Everything in the store is made from recycled garbage that they find at the dump. We met the owner who originally came from England. He lives here now and is married to a Honduran lady. He is an artist and started this business about 8 years ago and employs 17 people from the island. We walked next door to a little bakery that was owned by a girl from Northern California. It has all kinds of organic food, sandwiches, etc. We then headed back to French Harbour to see if we could get our internet working properly. After so problems and trips there we were ready to scream, but John finally talked to someone that knew what they were doing. So, I think our internet is set up correctly now (we try to stay optimistic). We had also bought a phone from the kid next door, so they set us up to use that. The brakes on the rental car were starting to grind when we tried to stop, so we went back to where we rented the car from and they put new brake pads on. When we got back to the house, we ate some lunch and then went down on the pier to fish a while. Carlos came out on the pier to visit with us. He has been struggling with diabetes, so we asked if we could pray for him. It was a really awesome prayer time and I know he appreciated it. While we were fishing, Bev called her dad and sisters with our new cell phone. It was great to hear the voices of family.
