But he was thrilled (after a few groggy minutes) when we woke him up and told him it was time to go! He stayed awake the whole drive up to the "hairport" talking about seeing Uncle Adam.
The Sighting
First Meeting
We commented on how skinny he is and he said, "You don't know what it's like to eat beans and rice every day." Then he looked around at all of us and said, "You've all been eating well." He then came right out and called us fat. We thought that was funny. He will fatten up too. (He's so skinny he has even lost his cheeks--that is hard to do for us Bezzants!)
Adam had been in lock down the last week in Honduras because a gang, angry at the United States because of this, was out to get all the gringos.
When he went to leave Honduras he discovered that his visa had not been done properly and that he had only received permission to be in Honduras for 90 days. They were going to arrest them and not allow them to leave the country. Adam said the church paid 7000 lemps for each elder to get through, as kind of a bribe.
Good thing he served an honorable mission and we were all praying he would get home safe!
