Arrival in Vienna

After 11 hours on a plane, I arrived in Vienna, Austria this morning at 8:30. Dan, one of the pastors of the Lighthouse church, picked me up and we headed to Bratislava, Slovokia. Dan had a meeting with a friend for a couple of hours so I just hung out and started reading the book Redeeming Love. From Slovokia, we traveled by car to Vsetin where I will be staying the next 3 months.

Vsetin currently has about a foot of snow on the ground and the high temperatures have been around 30 degrees. This afternoon, I met Hanka whom I will be living with for the first month. She has a flat (apartment) here and lives within a 15 minute walk to the town and Majak Church. After unpacking, Hanka and I walked around town. This evening, Hanka and I played volleyball with a group of people, some who attend Majak Church. It was a blast playing with such good players. It is challenging to play with them because I have no idea what they are saying but I'm hoping I will catch on quick! Tomorrow, I will see a lot of the people I met this summer at camp. I cannot wait to see them all!

You can only imagine how tired I am after being in 5 different countries (US, Canada, Austria, Slovokia, & Czech) within the last 24 hours, walking 4 miles today, and playing volleyball.

Dobre noc (Good night)
