The checkin is finished. The security check is done. And now the fun part of travelling begins -- waiting on the plane!!! Everything has gone well and everyone is present and accounted for. Partaking of M&M's, Coke and a last taste of real American food before we start the first part of the adventure -- flight from Bush Intercontential to Paris Charles-de-Gaulle International Airport. Nine and a half hours in the air sounds like a great way to start the journey. We have a four hour layover in Charles-de-Gaulle -- so going to see the Effiel Tower or the Louvre is kind of out of the question. But a good sample of French Breakfast -- coffee and a Bagatte may be on the schedule.
After that it is on to Abidjan (six hour flight) and arriving at our final destination! It is always the journey that is the best part of travelling, so I look forward to finally getting on with the trip. Please continue to pray as we travel and also for the continued preparation in the various sites. And who knows maybe I will see the Effiel Tower (from the airplane as we land!!!).
