Why wear pads and helmet while learning?


Read all posts down the page to get all the drama. cm


(Charles) Mark and I arrived in Tel Aviv at 4:20 pm after a long flight from Houston to Israel with a connection at Paris Charles de Gaulle airport. We finally got word that Randy did get his new passport in Houston and will join us as soon as possible.
 
After arriving into Ben Gurion airport we proceeded to the immigration where everything went fine except for a lot of people in the queue (we picked the slowest line as usual.) and then on to the Dan Panorama Hotel on the Mediterranean Coast.
 
I was able to surprise Mark when we walked to the beach and met up with ZuZu Segways where we "learned" how to maneuver a Segway and took off for Biblical Joppa.  I hit a curb and twisted my ankle so I am pretty handicapped for the time being. Be sure and watch the video above.

(Charlene) Life is a bed of roses and sometimes you get into the thorns.

We praise the Lord that Randy did get the flight to Paris but when he arrived he found that he had been bumped from the connecting flight to Tel Aviv which gave him another 6 hours to sit and worry about how to let his dad know of the change. His phone did not work and the only email he could use was his old AT&T one. Randy's email to me said "I am using an iPad in the Air France lounge but it is difficult. Especially the french keypad and autocorrect." Ha! I have been there, paying by the minute and using a French keypad.

  Thank the Lord, I woke up very early and got the email from him and was able to then text Mark's phone (they were out sightseeing with no wifi). Now we can assume all three will be reunited at 10:30pm on Tues night their time. (Israel is 8 hours ahead of the US.)

Stay tuned and pray for a blessed trip for all. cm
