Arrival in Romania

We made it!

Some highlights:
Made it to the airport on time...and found each other easily.

Lost no luggage or had anything confiscated.

Found Chicago pizza while waiting in the international security line.

Barely made the connection in Chicago due to the long security line.

Almost had to shorten our legs to fit in the Austrian Airline flight from Chicago.

There was no AC in the car/van ride from Bucharest to Sibiu, but really enjoyed the amazing thunderstorms.

Decided not to try the sulfer spring water at the health springs we visited...Radu (Missions Pastor at Betania, and our host) didn't drink any either!

Looking forward to attending several church services tomorrow!

More later, we all need showers and sleep.

Our prayers are with you all. Don't miss the little moments that God has for you on this trip as you dive into this. Be the church.

Kim, so glad you all arrived safely and unscathed. Would Liz give those of us that stayed home her first impressions of Romaina? We thought of you all as we celebrated father's day here. Do they have any similar holidays? Will you be reading your personal e-mails while you are there? Looking forward to your messages.
Love, Mom

You know this is going to turn into the Hensley family blog... LOL
:-)
So, how much longer 'till you come home? I miss you enough for both Jen(n)s!
Glad everyone found everyone else easily and all that... and that you found Radu! :-)
Happy Father's Day to Mr. Michael... Darryl wants to know if he'll be wooting in Romania. (Can't imagine two weeks w/o wooting at 10pm!)
Nae has an owie on her toe. Both littler ones spent the last two days in the pool to cool off.
What's impacting you most there? (besides the lack of woot.com)
Share some more when you have time.

Glad to see you have all arrived safely, without too much adventure. (Security lines do not count, especially if they have pizza... Thunderstorms are a good warm up though.) We miss you Linda! Be safe all and you have the whole church up here in Oregon praying for you! Looking forward to the updates.

Glad to hear you had a smooth arrival. Austrian Air is definitely the worst for leg room in my experience. Bless you guys!
