Thailand Again!
I don't have any pictures yet, but here is some news....
Our last week in Cambodia getting ready to come was hectic in many different ways apart from the usual planning, preparations, finishing work, etc. So getting on the airplane was a big relief. Unfortunately, our usual "luck" with air travel engaged and our second plane was delayed for nearly 3 hours, so the "quick, easy trip" took us all day instead of a few hours! Still, we managed to get here and, although Grace only fell asleep on the plane a short while before landing, she traveled very well. Michael was a great pack horse so I didn't have to carry anything heavier than a water bottle :o)
Our first few days here have been wonderful for unwinding and recuperating! We are staying with some friends who are looking after us wonderfully. They have 4 year old twin girls, so Grace is quite delighted to be here also! We have been fed and watered, allowed to rest and sleep as much as we need, and given advice and help in discovering a place to stay after conference (June 8-15) until we can return to Cambodia (hopefully at the end of July).
If all works out well, we will be subletting a most fantastic house from a missionary family on furlough this summer. It is like a resort house to us: huge, open rooms; 4 bedrooms(! so if you want to visit us now is a good time...); wood paneling (so nice after Phnom Penh's eternal concrete and tile!); a shaded yard; not far from a swimming pool; in a lovely green neighborhood. God is good to us indeed!
