Just talked to my husband on Face time again. He looks really good and alert. He and Paul were at the School studying in the conference room today. It was a good walk for them and will help them get over the jet lag.
Here is Wayne's rendition of their first night.......
Here is Wayne's rendition of their first night.......
"Paul and I are at the school now.
We may have to move over here on Monday.
The hotel is not practical. No fridge, no food, no coffee, no internet, no desk, no phone, but we have LOTS of heat which can’t be shut off and LOTS of noise which also can’t be shut off."
And This is Paul's rendition of their first night in Latvia. Enjoy......
"The "hotel" is part of a city complex with gymnasium, ice rink, restaurant, 6 room "hotel" and school with playground all rolled into one little complex. After we arrived following hours of traveling with little sleep, we took short naps to try and 'readjust the biological clocks', only to awake with the sound of drums beating and lots of noise. A men's indoor volleyball tournament was underway in the gymnasium and our rooms are almost under the bleachers.
I have to interject here.......if I can quit laughing. I just got a mental picture of the two men being jolted awake thinking bombs were dropping and bolting out of bed and taking cover. Jet lag does strange thing to ones mind ya know. LOL. 😁😱
There is a grocery store (like a small Aldi) across the street from the school, and we went there and got bottled water after dinner last night. It will truly be a convenient store for little things, and the prices are very reasonable.
Saturday is a day of further 'biological clock' adjustment and preparation for Sunday. Wayne preaches at the local church on Sunday morning so please pray for him. The sermon is translated into Russian for the congregation. Paul will do the same on Wednesday evening. The Bible school starts on Monday morning."

So you can see things are off to a good start. Having been there I can tell you that the city complex is a wonderful place for families and there is always lots of activity. Of course that never bothered us when we walked over there because we have never stayed there. So thus the reason for them walking to the School today for a bit of quiet.
I have begged Wayne for pictures so perhaps today sometime the "spirit" will move them to snap a few and I can post them for you to enjoy.
Happy Saturday everyone.
Much love,
PW, Sherry, and PH
