day six

Mennonite Mission Network was very well represented today in our house, as 3 people (other than our leaders) came to finally meet the people that they have been emailing with. We had continuous meetings today from 10 AM until about 3 PM about how to openly communicate with each other as a complete group. While quite boring, it was good to have an open time with everyone on a neutral level about group living.

In the afternoon, they gave us advice on how to write a blog that keeps people interested. I think I might start that tomorrow, as I would rather just write tonight what I had planned. When free time finally started, after supper, as a group we decided to go downtown and see Paramount Pictures filming their new hit, Transformers 3. We saw a few famous people, as well as a few awesome cars! I have never seen any of these movies, so it was like seeing a random person in a sweet car in Chicago. No big deal.

We also took time to go back to a favorite spot of the group, the bean, and take a few night photos of what people experience with this awesome place down town. This particular picture was taken by JD Nafziger, one of the group members going to Bolivia with me.
