We have arrived in the Czech Republic safe and sound after a very long trip. After a good night's sleep the boys are playing cars with Matthew, the pastor's son, and we are planning to go to Pastor Milan's house for lunch today. Tomorrow church potluck.
Regarding our travel, I just want to say a word or two about Iceland. It is an island country about the size of Kentucky with a total population of about 300,000, and a total of 1 tree. Ok, so we didn't actually see the tree, but I'm postulating that there must be one. Even from the airport it is an enchanting country - purple wildflowers line the runway as far as the eye can see. Flying in looked more like landing on the moon - lava and boulder fields right up to the ocean, with volcanic mountains and glaciers in the distance. (If they faked the moon landing, this is where they would have done it). In college I spent 3 days on Iceland once, and I must say it is truly filled with natural wonders.
Ok, next entry will be about the Czech Republic - also an enchanting country, but lots of trees.
