London!

I made it to london! What a trip so far. Delayed flights are awesome. Guess i am supposed to work on my patients during this trip. I sat with a nice couple from spokane/california on the first leg of my trip. Don is a voice actor so the whole conversation was like talking to a radio announcer with a smooth deep voice. I said goodbye to them (Thank you Ransons for your prayers!) and headed to my next 9.5 hour flight to london. Instead of sitting next to the cute girls with accents i sat with a Lebanese man name Fadi. Fadi is probably one of the nicest most genuine (talkative) people i know. For about the next 3 hours strait, i learned about the Islam faith and how it differs from Christianity. Long story short, i was humbled by this man's love for God and his caring heart. We didn't really agree upon the idea of a trinity, or that jesus wasn't who he said he was, but we still have a very deep, emotional conversation. We exchanged email addresses and as we were walking out of the terminal he wished me well on my trip, and insisted that i take his nice watch because i needed more than he did (i forgot my watch in spokane). I was about in tears because of his generosity. We hugged, said goodbye and i got on the bus to London. I am still reeling from the love a complete stranger showed me... i really dont know what else to say about that. I got to play in london for awhile... got lost several times... took a lot of pictures... but managed to make it back to my hotel in the dark. It's pouring down rain outside right now... but it's fitting. I'm pooped. The 25 hours of being awake is catching up with me. Thank you for all your prayers. I hope to update when i get to Africa. Much love.
