In the Czech Republic!

     Hello friends and family and anyone else who might possibly be reading this blog!!! So, I am sitting in the lobby of Hotel Malenovice enjoying the cold weather with a warm cup of tea. Yes, you should definitely be jealous. I had forgetten how beautiful this Country is!! It is absolutely stunning!! We have gotten here just in time to see all of the trees start to turn gold and brown...but the hills and mountains are all still wonderfully green....and some people seriously think that there's is no Creator?? Hm. Anyways, needless to say the Czech Republic is a gorgeous Country and gives great credit to our FABULOUS  Creator.
           Ok, getting here....yes. It was a very very long day of traveling. The flight itself wasn't actually that long...it was the 8 hr layover in Frankfurt that was the killer!! We got to the airport, looked at each other, and were like there is no way that we're waiting here for 8 hours! So, we took a tram to old town Frankfurt and walked around for a couple of hours. Heh, and evidently "October Fest" is in full swing in Germany!! When the 8 hours finally came to a close we boreded our 2nd plane and headed for Krakow, Poland where we were picked up by some of our Czech friends! AFTER THAT-another 21/2 hour drive to our flat in Czesky Tsein!! But we finally made it to our flat(praise the Lord)and crawled into our glorious beds!!
           For the past 2 days we have been in Malenovice going through cultural training and band practices. For the rest of the week we're mostly just practicing music and getting ready to head out on tour. We leave Sunday afternoon for our first city, Opava! Please be praying as we are gearing up for 5 city's and 9 more weeks of seeing God move and do radical things!! Also, I am still deeply under the influence of JET LEG so please please please forgive my poor grammer/spelling!! More to come soon!! Until then...PEACE AND BLESSINGS!!
