Well, the search is over. At least I think so. We have moved into a new room. After walking up and down street after street in Pucallpa, Jenni and I finally decided on the original place we first looked at. A 4th floor room, with an amazing roof-top view of the city, though you have to walk out onto the veranda area to actually see the viewJ, it’s quite the place, not to mention some quality stair-climbing exercise! Throughout this whole time of searching for a place, I felt God opening and closing doors to various rooms. Some just didn’t have the right location, or the room was really small, or there was no chance at having internet. Needless to say, I feel God has led us to this room, high above almost all of the city. Walking onto the veranda, we are able to receive internet signal. The location is perfect. Being just across the street from our former room, we are just as close to everything, even closer to the french fry place!J We have our own private bathroom, which is great, not to mention cleaner!! Of course, after living here not that long, actually the very first night, we discovered that the ceiling leaks and the water randomly turns off and on. Well the ceiling has since been fixed (thank goodness). However we are still trying to figure out the water situation. Apparently we are under city water, which tuns off supposedly between 1 and 6pm each day. Thats fine with me. If its consistent, i can plan and be prepared. However, the water thing has been anything but consistent. One time it was off for 48hours with no sign of life anywhere. Water is pretty important and so to have its supply source be very unpredictable, makes it a frustrating situation. We hope to have this resolved in the very near future! After organizing and finally settling on Thursday, I have been able to make use of the desk that was already here and finally get some quality work completed. It’s exciting because our little room is finally looking like home and becoming comfortable, despite it’s little quirks. the picture is of our old room. new pictures of new room coming sometime soon...
