Day Fourteen

Graduation day for our ESL students! Also our last full day in Croatia so we had lots of last minute things we wanted to do like shopping, visiting with kids from the orphanage, risking our lives, you know, things like that.


This is probably a little unfair to Kyle because he was not the only member of our group who had trouble with his "space" but I couldn't resist. I promise this was not a staged photo but I thought if nothing else it would be of future value to George and Kathy.


Some kids from the local orphanage we saw as we were headed to the market to pickup some last minute things.


Yes, after lots of hype, 3 of our group actually did it. This diving platform is reported to be 10 meters tall and safe to use. In all fairness we did see others throughout our time in Karlovac using this. This is David enjoying the free fall. (Make sure and ask him about his trunks.)


This is Kyle, no doubt spurred on with David's story and success.


Jacob, of course not wanting to be out done.


This was the big finale, all 4 jumping at the same time, from different platforms and in different directions.


Kids at the orphanage. We opened the front door and they practically fell on us!














Mark thanking the church for having us and hoping we get to come back soon.
