Day 13?: We've lost track!

Wow, it's been a long day or two. We stayed up until the bus was to take us to the airport at 1:30 am. We played many a game of spoons and had a blast. When Ronnie, our tour guide, parted with our bus, he said that he wished more people were like us and we would always have a friend in Israel. He has never worked with a group like ours, and it was a blessing to show him true love and acceptance. He jokingly said that our group was more Jewish than he is because of our interest in and support of the history and future of Israel. There was no better way to end the trip. Please contiue to pray for him, as he asked for prayers too!

We took one flight from Tel Aviv to Frankfurt, and then another from Frankfurt to DC. We arrived safely (with luggage!) and got a hotel for the night. Bodie's friend Elizabeth came and hung out with us which was a blessing and helped us stay up later too!

A new game we learned called Indian (not sure that's very p.c.) And we entertained the masses in the gate waiting for the plane.










We are blessed to be back in the states. Thanks for all your prayers and we look forward to seeing you soon! We fly back tomorrow (Friday) and will get in to Long Beach around 5pm.

Bodie and Heidi- what an amazing trip! I got your email and came to check out your pics. Harbor Trinity is in Israeil right now, too. Crazy, huh? Love the pics and commentary. It sounds like you're having a great time.
