There's not a whole of of news to report today other than all of our train journeys and connections to get to Geneva and then our EasyJet flight to London Gatwick went as smooth as clockwork. Tonight we're at a little hotel 5 minutes from Gatwick Airport which means a quick little journey in the morning for our flight home. Tonight we had dinner at a little Pub just next to the hotel. Great Food and a Great Last Dinner together!
This is probably the most difficult blog entry to write because it's bittersweet to think of all we've been through together. All of the planning and anticipation and teamwork and new experiences and ALL those different languages have all worked together to change our lives and how we look at other peoples and cultures. We might be at the end of our journey but definitely not the end of our friendships and memories. We started strong and it's important that we end strong, too. You see all of those smiles in the previous pictures??? I think those are the assurances of our strong ending!
This trip could not have been possible without these great students and their parents. It couldn't have been possible without the hours and hours spent in preparation, planning, emails, international phone calls and PRAYERS! Angie and I are thankful for the help of Ms. Ketchen and Ms. Armstrong as they each offered up their own special talents. We're thankful for Mr. Margene for his warm send-off and group prayer at the Knoxville Airport. What a time we have had and most of all what great memories we will always cherish. Your kids are super great wonderful young adults, and we look forward to seeing them continue to grow in their academics and in their Christian Life. We love each and every one of them! Good night from London - see you tomorrow in Knoxville.
Kindest Regards,
Tim & Angie
