How can I even title this/

So its been a long time since I last posted. I really don't have an excuse since I have had access to the internet for a long time but I just haven't known what to say and haven't had the ambition to do it. Last week we stayed at this camp that is located about an hour and a half from Calgary, AB close to the small town of Sundre. We were there for about nine nights and were blessed to be sharing our rooms with only one other person and we all had our own bathrooms. When you go from sharing a bathroom with twenty girls and sleeping in a room with five others this is quite the difference. So we got to hang out, have a speaker and participate in the camps activities that they offer. We also had a day of silence where we were supposed to just spend the day listening to God and couldn't talk for the whole day. That is really challenging. After that we loaded up into our vans and we headed to Vancouver. We stayed at the Patricia Inn on east hastings street and got to have a free weekend. On the Saturday I went with a few people to see the movie Footloose which was absolutely amazing. Then in the evening we went to Gastown and found a cute, nice restaurant and had supper. On Sunday we were planning to go to Stanley park. We hopped on one of the buses and ended up in a totally not Stanley park area. After about 45 minutes of sitting on the Transit bus the bus went "not in service" and the driver kicked us off. Thankfully the last stop was close to the sky train terminal so we boarded and took about a twenty minute ride. Eventually we made it back to the mainland of Van, found the right bus, got on and about an hour and a half later we finally managed to get to Stanley park where we went to the aquarium. It was an awesome day. Especially since we did all that travelling on one bus ticket. So this morning we were starting our Vancouver Urban Plunge and we found out this morning that on Saturday night our trailer was broken into and they took off with hundreds of dollars worth of our stuff. Not everyone lost stuff just about thirteen of us. So we could use some prayer. Thankfully a few items were found being sold on the street and they were now returned to the rightful owners. God is awesome and afterall those are just material items. Well I need to go to bed now so I think this will be wrapping up this very abnormal post.
