Rachel,
I love the McGuyver references. You write so descriptively, I can picture everything. Thank you for sharing your experiences. God is blessing you in so many ways and you are passing those blessings along. You're in my prayers and will continue to be. Much love, Diane

Stay away from the bat poop, unless you need some presents/souvenirs for family members.

Hi Punny,
Sounds like you didn't have too much idol time this weekend. I'll be praying that you don't the rest of the time you're there too.

Just when I think the day is a bust and should just be written off -- I read your blog. What a riot, I couldn't stop laughing. The next time I'm in a jam, I'll think of my McGuyveresque sister and create my own flashlight and oxygen tank! You can keep the bat poop, Rachel. I'm glad to know that you've gotten to experience begging on the streets -- next time Dad or Cathy threaten to turn you out (because of your bad grades, lol) you will be prepared.

I'm glad that you were able to use Paul's teachings to handle the food sacrificed to idols issue. To be able to remain true to your convictions is a strength given to you by God -- you keep using the gifts He has given so wisely! I love you and miss you.

hey Rach!
Quite an experience already! Didn't we just do that same jungle cruise down the river last week at Disney? I'm laughing about the Indiana Jones song because Andrew has been talking about him all week after the Indiana Jones show at MGM, except he calls him 'Trader Jones' (after the store). How funny is that.
love you and miss you!

Hello there R!

Glad to hear you are having a good time. It is awesome that you are able to see some of the world's greatest landmarks. I like the fact that you went skydiving, at some point I'd like to experience the feel of the wind rushing by my ears =).
May God bless you and keep you safe, I look foward to reading more of your exploits on your blog!

Irby.

Okay. I will never. ever. go. skydiving. I will travel alone. I will walk through New York alone at 4a. I will carry a balance on my credit card. I will allow a hairdresser to have fun with my hair and make parts of it apricot. I will move to new places alone with no job or plans. I will ride roller coasters. I will feed my children crazy foods and allow them to do dangerous things. But I will never go skidiving. You are a crazy girl. Glad you're having fun!

If you'd get up at a decent hour, I'd have that helmet. Love you anyway and miss you a lot! Dad

Now that you mention it, I really liked Brighton too. And the palace is way cooler than the rest of the million castles in the UK. Good for you on the Notting Hill deals. There's some vintage shop that I loved nearby; I'll try to remember the name. Do us proud! smooch.

I am so excited for you. I know that this has been on your heart for a long time and finally to find someone who is bringing both of things God has given you as gifts come together. I hope that you don't lose all of your money out there since it is so expensive but it is encouraging to see that you are well taken care of by God and that you are getting into that culture. Thanks for mentioning Moshi Town. I have a few questions about some emails I've been getting from some of the members. I will email you soon. Have a great time. We miss you a lot out here. Don't feel too stressed about keeping in touch with everyone here. I know that was one of the things that stressed me out the most and I just couldn't keep up. Email those that you really need to but have faith that when you return God will be in control just like he is now.
The Tomb is Empty,
Zach
P.S. I am jealous that you are there with Tim Hughes. Bring a lot of wisdom back with you. Kwaheri Dada. Mungu akubariki

whatev! Firstly, EVERYONE likes hearing ANY travel stories. It makes us feel like our lives are a little less dull. Blog on. Secondly, rock the straight-legged jeans! I don't wear anything else. Go to Selfridge's and drool, then go to the Gap and get you some straight legs. You'll never want to go back. This is such great fun. Maybe we'll come visit :)
