City of Angels

hey everyone, just a wee quick blog to let you all know we have arrived safe and sound in cold oruro (still in bolivia for those of you that have similar geography skills to me!). we are staying in the flat of a missionary who has kindly allowed us to stay there whilst she is away in Cuba. Its so strange for us to have a place to ourselves (and the first time this year) but there are lots of meeting etc that take place in the house through the week with the charity we will be working with here "angel tree", so we are never really alone. Everyone has given us such a lovely welcome, and although we are still not totally sure of the specific work we will be doing here we have been shown around the building where Angel Tree work with children (lots whom have one or both of their parents in prison, and some who even have to live in prison with them), and it looks like a great project.
Its colder here than Sucre and a higher altitude so we are struggling a bit of an embarassing amount with the stairs and hills, but im sure we will adapt again soon enough!
We dont have great internet access here, but will be in touch with details of the work soon enough!!

love and blessings
