Four years after our first trip to Latvia we are finally back and ready to get to work. The trip was uneventful, with the ferry between Kappelskär and Paldiski being the lowpoint with cabins that reeked of smoke and previous parties. Now at least we are here
The place we are staying is falling apart and the fragrance of mould and sweat fills the rooms the carpets have years of filth lovingly worked into them and the bed we where supposed to sleep in falling apart. The realization that we are now missionaries in an underdeveloped country and shouldnt let these things bother us is hitting us both hard this evening as we feel disappointment knocking on our door. These acommodations are however temporary and we pray to God that the workers renovating our appartement will get extra strength and Godspeed.
