Hey everybody, Ryan Guard here. We arrived safe and sound after something like 17 hours of travel time. I can NEVER sleep on planes, but I slept through 8 straight hours of the first flight. We just unloaded and hit the beach for a few minutes, and we’re about to have dinner together as a team. The fun begins tomorrow, starting with church and then… whatever we can do to help!

Keep thoise prayer coming! We’ll try to keep you guys updated as often as possible. We found a little hotel with internet access not too far away.

Oh by the way, some of the kids were elated because we ran into a Filipino movie star at the airport. People were all around her taking pictures, and she stopped to hang with our kids for a few minutes. I have no idea what her name was.
