Blogging and Blessings
Hello from Amsterdam! I am sitting here in the airport, still going on NO sleep so if this entry is incoherent please overlook it. Yes, the delay was disappointing but God is blessing. Here are a few of the ways:
1. Original trip was delayed and we were spared the terrible weather in Europe.
2. We left on time from Huntsville
3. When we arrived in Detroit we found out that our flight to Newark was cancelled. They were able to put us on a flight straight to Amsterdam instead.
4. Although John and the airline tried every step of the way, we were unable to avoid the 14 hour layover here in Amsterdam.
5. We were able to go see the Corrie Ten Boom museum in Haarlem.
I will write some more details later. We still have a few hours here and it will probably be late Saturday night US time or later before we arrive at our home in Constanta. It was very windy here in Amsterdam. I've never seen the horizon move like it did this morning! Thanks for your prayers and please keep praying!

Glad you were able to visit the Corrie Ten Boom museum, send pictures and tell us about it.
Thanks to Jesus for a reasonably good flight! Sorry you have to lay over so long. God Bless,
Love,

I've been thinking about you and your family during this time of travel. What a great list of blessings despite the circumstances. And I am totally excited about you getting to go to the museum!! Hopefully you took pictures so you can share with us. I'll be looking forward to it.

I do hope you were able to take pictures of the museum. I am so looking forward to seeing them. Does the place look anything like the one in the movie?

I am so envious - I read a trilogy of books bound together by Corrie ten Boom - and it was during that time my faith became anchored. She is a precious saint. I hope you took pictures - and I certainly hope that you will post them and share with us when you can.
Try to get some rest my friend - holding you up in prayer.

Karen,
I hope this finds you home and safe. I'm so sorry you've had such a long and difficult trip back, but I'm glad you got to come home for Christmas! Our hot water heater arrived day before yesterday; that first shower was wonderful!
You get some rest and get settle in. I'll check in on you later,
DK
