If you've read the blogs I managed to write from the Colon Hotel (it stands for Christopher Columbus; not the body part) in Lima, Peru, you know I had an awesome trip. It was life-changing. If I could have, I would have brought several precious children home with me. I couldn't, so I have them safely tucked into my heart. I think about them often and lift them up in prayer to our Abba, Father.
As far as trip photos, I will start at the very beginning, which is a very good place to start.
I learned that from The Sound of Music. :)
Here is the luggage I brought with me to Peru. The purple bag was packed (by Joe) with my things and the green one was full of items (also packed by Joe as I had a packing breakdown!) for the children and orphanages. I took a pic of my bags in case they got lost. The only other time I flew out of the USA--to Nassau, Bahamas--for a College Fair when I was an Undergraduate Admissions Counselor for Campbell University (Buies, Creek, NC www.campbell.edu) ---my luggage got lost. :( Turned out it got sent to LaGuardia (spelling) instead of Nassau. I did get it back eventually, but it was a stressful situation!
Bon Voyage pic with Joe and Joshua taken by a Security Official before I went through security at the Greensboro, NC airport. I took great care packing my quart sized ziploc bag of liquids and gels in my shoulder bag. I also had a bookbag with me containing reading materials, my Peru journal, a change of clothes, meds, etc.
Here I am looking out the window before we took off from Greensboro to Atlanta. My flight was delayed. I hoped and prayed I'd get to Atlanta in time to make my connecting flight to Lima!
Tight quarters in El Bano on the plane from Greensboro to Atlanta! I could barely move in there!
So, this is Atlanta? It doesn't look as big as I thought it would....More pics ASAP....Jenn
