break was amazing!
sunday night me and liza are packing with nowhere to go! 10pm on sunday night we still didnt know where we were going the next day. however at about 10:30pm we had a phonecall saying we could stay at a bible camp about 2 hrs out of niigata.......................FOR FREE!
We travelled there the next day by coach and were picked up at the station by our host. It was the most amazing place. We were between mountains and beaches with some of the most amazing scenery i have ever seen. Each night me and liza went to watch the sunset over the sea. It was so beautiful, just this orange fireball setting into the ocean.
We spent our time at the beach and at the local tourist/shopping spot but also alot of tie jsut relaxing. We read books and just enjoyed the nature andscenery.
plus we got to cook for ourselves. now as you dont live on Doulos you don't what excitement that provides! We only had a small gas stove but we got creative and cooked up a couple of nice meals.
the second night we went for Ramen which is a noodle dish very famous in Japan. It is sooooooo yummy!

faith as small as a mustard seed......

hello from niigata! This is our final port in Japan and then it's off to South Korea. Time has gone so fast. I have thoroughly enjoyed Japan even though it has been hard work at times. But the people here are generally very friendly as i have stated before.
I go on break tomorrow. This means I am taking 4 days off and going away from the ship. Well thats the theory. I leave tomorrow and at the moment have nowhere to stay the night. How does a faith trip sound to you!! Me and Liza have concluded that if nothing comes up by tomorrow lunch we are getting on a bus and seeing where we end up. God will provide us somewhere to stay that is not the ship and not too expensive!! Please don't freak out mum! My dad is a very big and rich man. he won't let anything happen to me! hehe
