home country/home town! It all started with the 13 hour overnight drive to even get here... then we got stopped for 2 1/2 hours at the border (Our big black van is sketchy? What?). We were a few minutes late for our first screening, but they
were very understanding, and loved the documentary. The PRINCIPAL even commented on what great speakers we are. That was definitely something awesome to hear after a looooong drive. It made it very-much-so worth it.
After our 5 days here in Canada
, we as the West Coast team, have officially raised enough funds through donations to rescue ONE refugee! :) Thank you to San Diego, Phoenix/Tucson, Los Alamos, Orem/Provo/Logan/Salt Lake City, Twin Falls, and Vancouver for making that possible!
As soon as I finish writing this, we are off for one last sight-seeing adventure here in Vancouver (to Stanley Park), and then we are off to Seattle, Washington. The past 3 weeks have been wonderful and inspiring, and I'm excited to see what the next 2 weeks have in store for us before we head down back into California! :)
