We headed out from GSO at 8 AM on Saturday to RDU (saved a lot of airfare). We headed to JFK on Jet Blue; 'BONUS' with leg room and snacks! We're surrounded by people speaking strange languages in a cafe that doesn't give free refills. Wait...what? We're still in New York!? I can't help but think of what God did at the Tower of Babel.
Turkish Air didn't bother with annoying things like waiting until your seat number was called. Everyone just kind of jammed up and ignored what the announcer was saying. We somehow all got seated eventually and the plane took off less than an hour late. I suspect they build that into the schedule. Ten hours of no legroom but good food later, we arrived in Istanbul. From there on to our destination. It was great to see Lori and Nathan D. waiting there along with Brian, a fellow missionary (more about Brian in a later post). After a harrowing 1-hour car ride we arrived at "Ur", safe and sound 28 hours later.
