Where are all the pictures?
So I said in the last post that I would put up some pictures from my trip to Jozi...but let's start at the begining.
It started last Wedneday. I woke up to the sounds of a buzzing alarm clock. But it wasn't mine! One of the rooms in the dorm passage (in Jozi), was ringing inssesently. 5am + Gauteng = COLD. And now I'm grumpy, beacuse i'm awake and can't get back to sleep because of this bl..dy alarm clock!
Around 5:30, I start to hear Praise and Worship music coming from the passage. As I'm awake, I deceide to check it out. The dude across the hall from me is playing his Hillsong music. It was just what I needed. I got out my Bible, and notebook, and spend some time in prayer, especially for the guys from our church that are in Zimbabwe.
Around 6:30 I actually sent and chatted to the dude across the hall (his name was Marcus). WOW. God is a great God. I knows our needs and just how to fulfill them. After a really good chat, and a quick prayer for one another, it was time to start the day.
Now, SAA, our local airline and my carrier of choice, was having some problems with wage disputes, and as we were supposed to be flying back to PE, things weren't looking good for us. We got to the airport at 4:30, and managed to get seats on the 4:50 flight (we were supposed to leave at 6:50!). Unfortuantely, when I went through security, I was stoppedbecause I had "sharp objects" on my person. I had forgotten about my pocket-knife! The security lady MADE be check in my bag, with my laptop and digital camera, and my bible and notebook! And you can imagine what didn't arrive in PE!
So for the past few days I've been sorting out insurance quotes. And am unable to show you the pictures as promised!
However, this weekend wasn't all bad. Heath and I did go and see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory yesterday. Jonny Depp was very good, but, IMHO, he lacked that special something that Gene Wilder gave to the role in the original movie. But that aside, a very good movie.
And next weekend, we're going to Kenton-on-Sea with some friends. I'm looking forward to showing Heath where I spent most of my childhood holidays....
Gees, this was a long post. For those of you that made it this far, well done. For the rest of you, you're just damn rude!
Oh, one last thing, well done BRabbit on your preach yesterday, 2 thumbs up!
