    Hi all,
    I’m sitting at Reagan international airport in Washington DC, getting ready to board the first leg of my flight to Brisbane Australia. The journey will be 28 hours on Air Canada with a stop in Ottawa and Vancouver BC to change planes.

    I’ll be there for a month.

    I’m visiting an Aussie friend who is a gyroglider instructor and I’ll be taking his course. I may also get some gyroplane instruction while there. We’ll also be doing the Aussie tourism stuff in the Queensland region, including Steve Irwin’s zoo.

    Other than 3 medical missionary trips to Haiti in the mid 1990s I’ve never flown internationally.

    Your prayers for a safe journey would be immensely appreciated.

    How exciting, what an adventure! You remind you that God wants us to enjoy life as a great, great gift. You are still very young at heart. I must try to travel more when I get things fixed here. Prayers for a grace filled time.

    A little jealous.:):)
