Arrival

Wednesday's Pictures

Just a quick entry: we made it to Brazil! I am currently on my laptop in the pastor's office enjoying his high-speed wireless Internet connection, waiting on lunch to be ready (10 minutes - I better hurry).

We met the group from San Jose in Atlanta as planned, then boarded a Delta 767 to Brazil. I really wanted to sit in the big leather seats at the front of the plane (the ones that laid back completely flat into a bed, and had their own lcd tv, and plenty of room, etc.), but they said my ticket was $1,000 too short to sit there. So AJ and I sat in a roomy 18" seat towards the back of the plane. Like row 38 of the back of the plane. With 3.4" of legroom part of the plane. You get the idea. Sleep was more a dozing proposition than a voluntary activity.

Well, lunch is about to be served. After lunch it's orientation time, then a quick trip to the church. I'll post more later, with pictures!
