So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, good night

So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, good night

Well I didn’t want you to worry about me, and why I wasn’t posting in such a long time (because, of course, I’m such a regular blogger) – SNORT!

You might remember last year that I told you I was going to Vietnam with Samaritan’s Purse – to hand out Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes?

Well the time has come … and on Wednesday I’m leaving my little country town, and winging to the great metropolis of Melbourne to spend the night – then meeting the rest of my team on Thursday to fly to Vietnam (10 ladies … plus our male team leader – poor man – and a few Vietnamese guides once we get to the other end).

EXCITEMENT!!! … with just a touch of nervousness thrown in, which no doubt might be quite a LOT of nervousness later in the week.  I’ve been having fun buying travel size things to go in my case.  It feels like I’m miniaturising my life!  Perhaps I’m really like Gulliver in Gulliver’s Travels?

No, not really.  So … if you are a person who prays at all, I would very much appreciate your prayers while I’m away.  I have never been to Asia before so I expect it will be a rather steep learning curve … but I’m so excited to see Vietnam.  Everyone says it is such a beautiful country.  AND I am especially excited to be able to give out shoeboxes to beautiful little Vietnamese children.  I have bought rather a lot of tissues as I suspect this might be quite an emotional journey.

Farewell my friends … I will see you on the other side with LOTS of photos and experiences to share, I’m sure.  I return to Australia on the 26th of Feb.

Blessings,  Fee :-)
