Our house in the middle of our street. Our house...

Are you humming the song yet?

Well for the past 24 hours we have been stuck at home because little Ella has caught a bug... Yep gross! Poor thing has been really poorly and needed to stay at home, so we have been making the most of this amazing place and exploring the area...
This is just one of the many breathing taking views from where we are.
 

It's so funny too that many of the plants we desperately try to keep looking amazing in Sacramento
grow like weeds here... look at these hydrangeas they grow everywhere! its so cool.



This little waterfall runs under the pathway up to our house.

This is the house we are staying in the pathway is lined with these lovely succulent plants, they look so good.

The steps leading down to the river


Trying to keep Jude occupied whilst Ella recovered was not really a challenge, we let him wander free within walkie talkie range of course and I even got him to take some pictures for me... he even got an iguana on film.
These are so some of them...
Oh first the handsome young man right before he headed out


The shot he took of the Iguana is a little blurry, he'll get it next time...


The pond above our house, they re-stock the river with these fish (I think)


One of the caves at the bottom of the garden


 and another waterfall

Tomorrow we head out to meet the congregation, we are hoping to get the schedule down for the ministry and the rest of the meetings times. We also get to meet the brother who helped us put this trip together, actually he did most of the work!
We can't wait to meet the brothers...
