Since this is travel day, I will simply give a play-by-play post
Once our group of 14 checked in for our flight, we made our way through security in the FLL Airport. If you want stress in your life be responsible for a church youth group to make it on a plane to a foreign country. I, promise, the stress is instantaneous and unenjoyable. However, I will say that thanks to God's timing it went rather smooth.
Once at the terminal, our group came to the realization that our flight had a two hour delay before we would leaving. So commenced our time killers...
For 9 out of 14 of our group this was their first time out of the country, and for a few it was the first time on an airplane. It was an adventure on every level for our group. Luk was incredibly excited to see the entrance of the plane because a two hour delay to a six year old is like an eternity.
But, Luk very quickly found his comfort zone in his seat, while...
the adults realized we were on the last row... and there was about three inches of leg space missing.
Once we made it out of Lima's Airport we met our awesome YWAM leader Cesar. He was a sight for sore eyes. It was good to be back in a country I loved and held dear in my heart, and to see a friend that has been missed over the past nine months.
Imagine that the six year old is too tired to walk after a six hour flight...
Safe and sound at the YWAM Base and home for the next eight days!
