We arrived in L'viv, Ukraine this afternoon after several delays from Chicago to Warsaw! However, all the luggage managed to make it except one piece which is a miracle. We have 30 team members and only one lost suitcase! The eye glasses got through customs with no problem and no one even asked about the large sum of cash I was carrying. God is very good. For the first time, I was able to really sleep on the plane last night and have had enough energy to get through the day with a smile!
The airport in L'viv is small and the luggage system is, well, pretty archaic! It was snowing like crazy and there was one little man unloading the bags onto an open truck bed, driving them in loads over to the building and handing through a small door to those inside. They have no conveyor belt. Our men helped sort the luggage after it was handed to them through the little door in the wall.
We got to the hotel and had an hour or so to rest then went to dinner. It is a nice hotel, warm, remodeled and has warm water! YEA! Dinner consisted of beet salad, bread, rice and a fried meat patty with mushrooms and cheese on top. Then there was a fancy little dessert for each person.
Well, I'm exhausted and it's time for bed. Tomorrow we have orientation and meet our interpreters. They are predicting snow every day we are here!
Thanks so much for your prayers, especially for the eyeglasses and money getting through customs! My health and strength is good, so please pray that I am able to do my job and not get tired!
