Greetings Friends and Family!
The time has finally arrived! The waiting and preparation is over and we are ready for our adventure together!
We head up to PDX tonight to stay with family because we have an early (well, 8:20am) flight in the morning. We have a layover tomorrow evening in the 'City of Brotherly Love' (Philadephia) and then its an overnight flight to Tel Aviv, Israel. Fortunately, we arrive in Israel in the afternoon so we will be able to drive to our hotel in Tiberias on the Sea of Galilee, have dinner and get some rest after the long flight.
We'll try to get something posted in Philadelphia (I have an odd fascination with airport carpet, so I'll post a picture of the carpet in Philly).
Then as soon as we can get wi-fi at our hotel in Tiberias we will try and let you know we arrived safely.
Israel is 7 hours ahead of Pacific Standard Time here in Oregon, so you should see posts from us around 2 or 3 in the afternoon your time after an eventful day of touring and adventures in Israel.
Kealy and I are both very excited, Kealy excited for the adventure, the travel, the food and the new culture to experience. I'm excited to see, touch, smell, taste and feel the places that I have only read about and studied in Scripture and in seminary.
We are both very excited and thankful to share this opportunity together, as we know it will strengthen our marriage and deepen our faith in Christ. We covet your prayers for our safety and travels, as well as for our kids and those that will be caring for them while we are away.
Until tomorrow!
Grace and Peace,
Ryan and Kealy
