to Rivas for witnessing with the english group

    the english group go to Rivas on Tuesdays to do english territory. it is 26km from San Juan del Sur. I went along this wk. we caught the bus at 8am. Another witness couple were already on the bus, Abigail & Dale from the States. others will travel over by car.

 along the way the bus stops to pick up people going to work, children going to school and anyone else needing to be somewhere. it didn't take long before the bus was full jam packed and it still kept stopping to pick up people. this ladies bag was in my face, well . . . not quite but just about.
I placed some mags with the man in front of me. I just tapped him on the shoulder and passed the mags over to him, he took them and started reading them. he didn't even turn around.

 There is a wind farm along the border of Lake Nicaragua.. The company I worked for in NZ built 3 wind farms in NZ so I was interested in seeing the wind farm here.

when we arrived in Rivas we made our way to the local park for the group. we were there by 9.15am.

Group foto before we headed out although not everyone is in it and it includes a couple just joining us for the morning who are in a spanish cong in Rivas.

During the morning i wanted to go to the ladies. MC told me the best place to go is at the bakery, but you have to buy something before you can use their toilet. It was the cheapest option, as other places have a set price, so we used the bakery toilet.

we met the group for lunch at this cafe. Most of us ordered pupusas (food from El Salvadore)

After lunch, the afternoon group met back at park. I went with MC on 2 of her studies. They are both spanish studies. One is with a couple of guys who work in a bicycle shop. They build them and sell them. We went to their shop. we are given a seat, we sit and have the study. Both guys have the study, normally Paul would be here but he couldn't come this week. Also one of the guys wife sat in. I enjoyed these 2, they seemed to have the 3 H's.

The next study was with a young lady in a hairdressing salon. Same scene there, we arrive, are given a seat and the study is conducted. the other hairdressers are sitting waiting for customers. eventually a couple of guys come in. One gets his haircut, while his friend waits he comes over to where we are studying and listens. It was a pleasure to have been on these studies. 

(reminded me of Mrs Kumar, keep it up Davi)

its was then time to get a few groceries and get our bus back. The bus didn't get as full on the trip home. i actually fell off to sleep and woke as we were getting into San Juan del Sur . . . .
