Paris day 1

After staying with our lovely friends on Tuesday night, they drove us to the Omaha airport and we flew over without a hitch. Kids did great on all 13+ hours of flying/airport time. No lost luggage, no delays - praise the Lord! :)

We rode a couple city trains (1+ hours of travel) through Paris to get within walking distance of our hotel. We had, what seemed like, easy instructions but could not find street signs and ended up walking for a LONG time, not really sure where we were going. We were finally rescued by a "Chinese Angel". She stuffed all 5 of us and 14 bags into her little car - like a small Toyota. We truly were like the clown cars from the circus!

Once at the hotel, our 'big' (for Europeans) family required 2 bedrooms (because you cannot put more than 4 in a room) so we have a 'luggage room' and a sleeping room. Now we have all rested a few hours and are ready for dinner. Praying our bodies think it's time for sleep again at a decent bedtime.

Our first service is on Saturday morning (which would be middle of the night Friday in America). We have 3 services this weekend in Paris. Pray for the Lord to meet with us!
