Hello from Uganda!

Our pastor Chris at Eastern Heights Baptist Church offered to take Flat Manly with him to Uganda! Pastor Chris was part of a team that focused on teaching church members how to use the Creation to Christ story to share the Gospel with others. Here are a few photos of their adventure there!

Manly (whispering): "Thanks Pastor Chris!"

Flat Manly Says, "Ciao!" from Italy!

G-bug and Truth's grandma has a globe trotting friend named Ms. Ruthie. She invited our own Flat Manly to join her on a trip through Italy! I'll share her photos and the fun facts she sent us below.

 "Ciao, everybody!"

Today Flat Stanley went to the medieval town of Siena, Italy.

This first photo is outside of the Cathedral (it is referred to as the Duomo in Italy, as are all large cathedrals).  It was first referred to in 1136, and is made of white, green and red marble.
The second photo is the inside of the same Cathedral, lots of old paintings of bible stories and lots of statues of important figures of the Bible.

 "Bellissima!"

Flat Stanley wanted to pick an olive from an olive tree today.

Photos of Stanley at cooking class making Pasta at the "Casanova Farm" in Castellina in Chianti, Italy.

 "Delizioso!"

Grazie to Ms. Ruthie and Mr. Bob for sharing your adventure with us!

Flat Manly trotting the globe again: Bali, Indonesia and Qatar!

That Flat Manly - he gets to go to the coolest places! This time, Manly caught a ride with my pal Ms. Bethany to Bali. BALI, y'all. Tropical, beautiful, picturesque island of Bali.

Some paper people have all the luck.

Here's Manly hanging out with two of our favorite teachers, Ms. Chandler and Mr. Mike!

Manly also got to spend some time in Qatar- and he found a TON of cool stuff to check out at the airport. 

Duty free, Ms. B!!

G-Bug would LOVE this in her room!

Wait, are those the Avengers? Truth is going to FLIP!

AAAHHH!!!!

Thanks Ms. Bethany for taking Manly with you on your trip to Asia! 

Flat Sally Goes to Washington, DC!

My awesome cousin Hyunjin has been hosting Flat Sally for several months and taking her on many wonderful adventures in South Korea. Little did we know that one adventure would bring them both back to the U.S. of A.

As luck would have it, Hyunjin was attending and speaking at a Tech Conference in Washington, D.C. and brought Sally along for the trip!

 My cousin is so cool.

 They also had some time to check out the National Gallery of Art - jealous!

Lastly, Sally and Hyunjin got a photo in front of the White House. This photo is especially meaningful to me, since Hyunjin and I actually went on a family road trip together to Washington D.C. 20 years ago and got a photo in front of the White House!

Top photo: Hyunjin is on the far right, and I'm the one in the purple striped overalls. Oh yes I did.

Bottom photo: Hyunjin and Sally looking cool.

Congratulations on a successful trip, Hyunjin, and thank you for another wonderful memory made!
