This is Dane. We have been in Poland for roughly 30 hours now. Enough time to land at the airport, drive to the campgrounds, sleep, play volleyball with some Polish children, and spend a day cleaning camp for the wedding being held here tomorrow. So, I'm just getting a chance to sit down and blog.
It's been a rough, but encouraging day. It's so hard to be here and not understand the conversations going on around you. The staff here is great, and know more English than I could imagine, but I miss knowing what everyone around me is talking about.
The food has been great but is going to take time to adjust to. We have to go from eating our full-course, stuff-your-face-full meals on directives, to eating much smaller but healthier meals at the camp. Deli sandwiches are the food for dinner and breakfast, while lunch consists of soup, pasta and maybe some meat. It's very interesting, but good for me.
Lastly, we're very exhausted (be praying for that). It's been a long day of cleaning and setting up for the wedding tomorrow. We finished right as the rain came in tonight, so we're trying to rest for a little in the room.
Hope everyone is doing well back home. Let us know if we can be lifting up anything. Do zobaczenia!

Another interesting fact: the sun rises at 4 AM here, and still doesn't set until like 9 or so...
Glad to know you guys made it! In my thoughts and prayers!
ReplyDeleteHey Dane and Erich,
ReplyDeleteKenya crew here, we miss you guys like crazy! I hope that you settle into a routine pretty soon. As 1 Corinthians 16:11 says "Look to the Lord and his strength; seek his face always"
