Ooh, I felt so stiff and sore when our plane landed in Malaga, just before midnight last night. It had been a long journey: eight hours in the car from Ternopil to Kiev, several hours of hanging around in airports (Kiev and Moscow), a short flight from the Ukraine to Russia, and then finally the 5-hour flight from Moscow to Malaga. A hot shower helped to ease the aching muscles and rusty joints, and I was given a very warm welcome by three snuggly felines who had obviously missed me while I was gone.
Looks like today and tomorrow are going to be rainy, and so my large mountain of laundry will need to wait for Wednesday, which is forecast to be a dry and sunny day. In contrast to last week in the PCYM, this week's schedule is mostly about computer work, curriculum writing, and some ministry meetings.
Thanks for your prayers during my trip to the Ukraine. I am so thankful that everything went smoothly, that my health was good, and that I was able to invest in the lives of those youth workers from different parts of Russia and Eastern Europe.
