Greeting From San Juan

As we finish our first day in Puerto Rico, I can already feel some of the stress of the past few weeks falling away. We arrived yesterday about 3pm and were quickly shuttled to Juan's house for a welcome dinner. It is in the 80's during the day here. We survive without air conditioning in the house and the 15 passenger van that we have down here. That means more frequent showering in order not to offend. We put together 22 food packages (about $800 in food) together for community families that we will pass out tomorrow. We also had to have the brakes on the van fixed. I noticed on the way back from going to get food for our house that the brake warning light was on. We discovered that there was no brake fluid left in the master cylinder and that there was brake fluid squirting out a rusted out hole in the main line going back to the rear brakes. We were only minutes away from brake failure. We were thankful the Lord was watching over us. Until later
