I wanted to let everyone know that we are settling pretty well to Hilo. It was so nice to get to see everyone at the going away party. Thanks to all you who were able to make it out =) So far we have just been figuring out the city and scoping out all the tourist spots. By God's grace we were able to find a house after a week of being here! We are soooo thankful, the hotel we were staying in was not the greatest. The house is 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom and it is right off of a golf course. It is in a very nice neighborhood and on a half acre, which is huge for Hilo. The only thing that is a little cumbersome are the bugs and frogs! The frogs like to come out at night and make a very lovely high pitched noise. Oh well, I am sure we will get used to it. Meagan has adjusted great and sleeps through all the noises! Turns out that she loves papayas too! We visited our first church yesterday. They were very welcoming and inviting. They have a very big passion for the people of Hilo and love God. It made me miss my Reno church family though. I think we will probably go back again. I have attached a few pictures of our adventures so far. Hope that everyone is doing well. We miss all of you guys so much!
