The International Terminal

On the way to Central Asia
You know when you've crossed into the international terminal. The mood changes. Turbans replace ball caps, saris replace sweaters, tribal gowns replace t-shirts. Even the language changes: the signs are no longer printed in English alone but French, Chinese, even Arabic. Questions swirl in your mind like, "Why are they traveling to _____ (fill in a country)?" The answers, of course, are as varied as the time zones the airport services.

  1. Jed--we are so happy that you are safe and sound and wow--what a cool outfit you were sporting in the picture with your sis;-) I think of Beth so often--I need to pray for her much more. Steve and I talk of you often--come visit us in Oregon!
