Day 7, Rarotonga.


It's Tuesday, again. We left Christchurch at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday and arrived in Raro at 3 a.m. Tuesday morning. Go figure! We arrived 17 hours earlier than when we left. Well, what can I say. We're on a gorgeous Pacific Island with good friends, the trade winds are a'blowin' and Nancy has her own espresso machine! We must be living right!
We got to bed around 4:30 this morning and slept til about 9:30, and were awakened by th Air Condition guys getting ready to fit our bedroom with a AC unit. Praise God! It's been pretty hot and humid today, but not unbearable. We took a look at the new church today. It's directly across the street from the airport and right on the ocean, of course.

Everything here is on the ocean. Great location, great building. The boys have been hard at work getting it ready for the grand opening this weekend. We'll have pictures of it tomorrow. We're having a barbeque at the church with everyone tomorrow evening.
We brought over from Christchurch 2 large boxes of PA equipment for the new church, so Ron and Murray spent most of the day setting that up.
We had lunch at a cafe owned by one of the church members. Beautiful. Ron and Murray had raw fish marinated in lime and coconut. Loved it.
We're contemplating "tea" right now. Nancy and I walked down to another member's home and hydroponic vegetable business and got greens for dinner.
We love it here, it's like a dream.
