We arrived at our Pousada (The Divine Light) at 12 noon after a harrowing, nauseous two hour taxi ride - we lived to laugh about it! Our room is very small and spartan. It reminds me of monasteries I stayed in while backpacking in Crete. The grounds are beautiful - we have the only Pousada in town with a walking labyrinth! Some pictures coming tomorrow - maybe.
We spent the very hot afternoon hanging out at the Casa (House of Love) and had the privilege of joining a "sing-a-long" of about sixty folks. We sang mostly hymns (a lot of which Kent has introduced to us in the last year) and secular songs like "Imagine". I cried most of the time - no clue why. . .
Joanne and I are boning up quickly through books and a two hour orientation this evening on the subject of Spiritism. If interested, look up books by Allan Kardec.
We are in good hands. John of God channels 38 entities, including John the Baptist, St. Francis of Assisi and King Solomon! We are really curious to see who shows up for each of us - although we'll never know for sure.
We report to the Casa at 7:30 tomorrow morning to see John of God. They expect two thousand people tomorrow because of Holy Week. The adventure continues. . .

Hi Janet and Joanne! Glad you made it there in one piece. I'm putting my money on St. Francis of Assisi!! =:^D xo
Glad you two survived the taxi ride. I can only imagine what harrowing means.
Sounds like you'll be sweating out toxins along with various spiritual journeys. Keep hydrating.
