Well, here I am...sitting in
the Washington Dulles airport waiting for the flight that will take me to my
new home across the ocean. Moments like these always seem to be such a surreal
combination of dream and reality. I’ve been planning and anticipating this move
since January. Now that it’s finally here, I can’t decide if I am living in
actual reality or if I am just caught in some crazy dream world. I can pinch
myself a hundred times, but I still have to keep reminding myself that all of
this is real.
I’d like to thank you all
for your encouragement and prayers along the way. God has shown up in my life
in some pretty exciting ways. Two weeks before today, I wasn’t even sure if I
would be arriving in Germany on time. And now, I’m sitting here at Gate
B44—tickets in hand, suitcases packed, and a heart full of eager anticipation. Thanks
for walking with me in the journey!
For some interesting airport
items of note…it appears as if I will be flying to Europe along with a high
school drama team. There’s currently about 30 high schoolers bopping around the
airport terminal and all of them are wearing fluorescent yellow T-shirts. I
wonder if London is their final destination? Perhaps they will be stopping to
see a performance of Shakespeare at the Globe! :)
Otherwise, things at the
terminal are pretty tame. Although I am getting some entertainment from the
continual paging of people with really cool and complicated names, like Abdul
Kerygista Thaileke Egimofor or Malcolm Sinbad Alzsakei. (I probably really
messed up those spellings.)
Well, it’s almost boarding
time. Please to sure to check in with my blog along the way!
