As I write it is early morning on this the 6th day of December. We are home again and so glad to be back to Canada, to family and things familiar. It was a wonderful feeling to arrive safely on Canadian soil again as we touched down in Vancouver about 6:30p.m. on Tuesday evening. It had been a good flight with British Airways from Budapest, to London and onward home again, skipping over several time zones as we flew westward. Along the way we had several interesting encounters with folks from various places.
Notice the little Russian girls all dressed in pink who we met in the Budapest airport. Only an hour later we found ourselves surrounded by a huge volleyball team from Croatia, en route to Finland for a tournament. And then there was the tiny Punjabi princess who travelled with us on the same flight from London to Vancouver. All of these brief encounters reminded us of our world and how small it really is when one can so quickly fly from one country to another. And in this we take comfort as we settle in here at home once more.
We know we need this time here in Canada to re-connect again with family and friends. We need time to recuperate and rejuvenate and save up before we head out again to live and serve in Hungary. Sensing that we will, in God's time, return again to Tapolca and loved ones there indeed made those final farewells much easier. And thus this blog will not necessarily be ending now. For those of you who have enjoyed taking this journey with us, we invite you to stay tuned. In due time we hope to return again. In the meantime we know He has work for us to do here, and new lessons to learn, so these will be things to share with you as this blog carries on......
