Divided We Travel
After a long but uneventful flight to Frankfurt, we arrived to find 8 of us had no seats on the next and final flight to Krakow. The airline had no record of the rebooking. The other 14 of us did have seats. So divided we went.
The group of 14 arrived just 6 hours later than scheduled. The group of 8, well, we're still in Germany. We are spending the night in a hotel and headed out tomorrow.
All of us are enjoying the adventure nonetheless. We are thankful for all the little traveling mercies along the way and praying tomorrow goes smoothly. Please keep us in your prayers too. And thank you for all the prayers thus far.
Here's a picture of the Frankfurt Fabs after dinner at Unterschweinestiege.

Answered Prayer
We got a flight out of DC tonight. A team of 22 people just got rebooked on an international flight. That doesn't happen.
After standing in line for 2 1/2 hours, we stepped up to meet Edimund, a gracious and efficient worker. He proceeded to buzz and whizz and ring through forms and phone calls and computer terminals to make it all happen.
So thankful for answered prayer, for all those praying, and of course, for Edimund. Thank you Lord!

Hurry Up and Wait
We made it through check-in and security with speed but only to find our flight has been delayed. Such is travel.
Excited to see how all the strange and little and unexpected details will work out for our good and His glory.
