We have arrived!

Hello from Jilemnice!

After getting delayed out of DC for an hour, flying 7.5 hours, a transfer in London, we arrived in Prague 15 minutes ahead of schedule! Praise God.
At Dulles Airport

Reading the Little Prince (theme of the camp)


Unfortunately Jackie was delayed due to bad weather. We got to know the Praha airport quite well.

Next was a long rainy windy bus ride into the mountains to get to our pension (a hostel). We drove through some nice countryside, beautiful despite the rain.

Dinner was made from scratch. Some of us had potato/mushroom cream soup and some of us had lentil soup. Following that (much waiting in between courses, remember, its from scratch). 6 of us had potato pancakes filled with meat. Luice had chicken schnitzel.

We're going to camp tomorrow and we don't know if we'll have internet access for the rest of the week. Please pray for us: that we recover from jetlag, are flexible, and bond with the students and leaders.

Thank you!

  4. Glad you're there! Good that your London connection wasn't affected by being late out of D.C. Your inbound plane had to stop at Baltimore because of the weather before arriving at Dulles. OK enough about planes. Will pray that you all are able to adjust rapidly to the time and that you get off to a good start at the camp. By the way I hope that potato meat pancake tasted OK.
