My day Off

So the other day on a Monday to be exact, I wanted to go to a gym to work out. During my 3 months in Cusco so far I have yet to go to the gym. So I decided I was finally going to go. I grabbed a combi and sat in the front seat wearing gym shorts, a t-shirt and a backpack. So while sitting in the front seat I asked the driver if he knew were I could find a gym. He told me he would tell me when to get off. So I waited and about 100 different people later he says that I was at the stop were the gym was. So I get off and notice right a way that my shorts are lighter. So I checked and saw that my phone had fallen out in the combi. By the time I realized I had lost my phone the combi was 4 blocks away. So at that point I was not the happiest person but mostly just be mad at my self. I walked around trying to find the gym and after about 15 minutes I finally found it. I walked in and asked the ladies at the desk how much it was for an hour she responded with “8 soles”, Now that is super expensive, usually it is one sole an hour. So I walked out, just a little more frustrated. I got a taxi back to the house and as soon as I got there I used Cailyn’s phone to call mine in hope that the combi driver would pick it up. I repeat this about 17 times until the driver finally answers. He tells me to be at the spot were he dropped me off and he would meet with me in 30 minutes. So I grabbed my rain jacket (it was pouring down rain) a bag of Doritos because I was starving and ran out the door to grab a taxi. I ran about a mile until I found one and I was off. So I get to the bus stop were I was supposed to meet him and waited for 30 minutes. The 30 minutes felt like an hour and he still hadn’t shown up, so I call about 10 more times until he answered again. Then, he proceeded to tell me to wait 15 more minutes. So I do and call him again after the 15 minutes and he tells me that he passed me about 2 minutes ago and says he would be back in 2 hours. Now, keep in mind by this point I am soaked with water and the roads are rivers so high that there hitting the grills on cars and its raining crazy hard. So this particular Monday night we were going to have a super bowl party at a friend’s house pretty close to where I was. So I decided to go early. I start running in the pouring rain to his house while trying to call him to let him know I’ll be early. I get there and ring the bell just hoping someone was home because he did not answer his phone. But he was there and tells me that he was in a cab going to his house and was sharing that he is a Christian with the taxi driver and it just so happens that the taxi driver was also. So then Scott goes on and talks about the work we are doing and as he is explaining this, he looks out the window and sees me running in the rain and says “ look, you see that guy, he’s one of the missionaries”. So the taxi driver asked why is he running and Scott said “I have no idea?” After listening to Scott tell me that he had just seen me, I just smiled and took off all my wet stuff. After 2 hours pass I call my phone till he picked up, so the driver of the combi says “I’ll be at the buss stop in 15 minutes”. So I slowly put my wet stuff back on to go back out into the pouring rain. But as I was walking out the door I got a call from Tyler and the rest of my friends who were all on there way to the Super Bowl party. They tell me that they are on the combi that I dropped my phone on. Now they did not know this at first but when I called the driver they over heard the call and saw that it was my phone and asked for it. So I ended up getting my phone back in the most unexpected way ever. All thanks to the God all mighty and His awesome grace.
