My travel adventure…

I found myself lying in my bed

Thinking about the journey I am just about to take

A little nervous I was

Writing down all the scriptures

That talk about God as our provider and protector

I was encouraged by how long they list was

 

Praying once more through they journey

I fell asleep

Waking early in the morning cause I couldn’t sleep

Praying some more that all would work out

Finally, it was time

Saying a couple good byes to the one that were a wake

I left the base with another student

Walking down the steep slippery hill

We made it

I see the bus

Just in time

We started… here we go no turning back now

Still a little nervous about traveling on my own

But finding the peace of God with me

Know that in all things He will protect and provide for me

One hour later we arrived at the airport

Here I go

Feeling the speed of the plane pull me to my seat

Always my favorite part about flying

And take off

I am on my way

 

Getting lost in the book I took to occupy my travel time

I was landing before I knew it

Patiently waiting for the everyone around me to leave

So I could get my bags I walked to the train station

The train promptly arrived soon after I got down

Here I go

My first train ride

Still lost in my book

I didn’t pay to much attention to the sensory around me

But what I did see what kind of boring anyways

They city of the Olso was very pretty

Lots of older buildings on the way to the central station

Well here I am not at central station

Asking God to lead me

I felt so small

In this big station all alone

With only God strength to lean on

There was nothing I could to be remain strong and keep going

Walking around searching for the bus station

Oh, there finally found the way to go

Walking across the bridge

Passing a homeless man

They thinking about how much I have

I pondering the thought of being homeless

How it much feel to always be alone

No place to go home too

Or at least not a warm comfortable home

How grateful I am for all that I have

 And that I was going to a warm place

Even though I didn’t know must of the people there

I knew it that it was a loving family

I continued walking where I found my way

Realizing my bus only leaves in a couple hours

I sat down and continued reading

It was a great way to pass by the time

I could see the bus around the corner

Getting ready to go outside

The door doesn’t open

Oh no all they people rush in front of me to the other door

Changing doors

Fef I am outside

People pile around

Pushing

Wanting to get a seat on the bus

Getting closer to the front

Still people squeezing past

I can see the stairs

I think I will get in

Finally, stepping up to pay for my ride

Seated comfortably in my seat

Ready for my two hour journey to the next plan ride

This time to Germany

Getting closer to where I need to go

Lining up to get my boarding pass

Taking a seat

Know I had a couple hours to wait

Starting reading again

Then realized I was in the wrong spot

Good thing I had lots of time

Going through to the international flights

Sit down again to wait once more

Check periodically for the gate that my flight was departing from

Sweet, gate 12

Only half an hour left

Then I am on my way

5 min. to boarding

everyone rushes to the line

but they weren’t as pushy this time

waiting

now getting a seat

yes, I can relax

almost there

take off

Germany here I come

Excitement starting to build

Rushing out to catch the bus to Mannheim

Oh no, they only take cash

Run, run, run need to quickly get cash

Run , run, run sweet he waited for me

Sitting down

Slowly starting to relax again

Two hours later

Mannheim

Yes, final part of my trip

Almost there

What a long day

Looking at the times

Sweet I have sometime to something to eat

Well… I guess not

Missed the first train, now I have to wait half an hour

Relax, eat, wait, read a little

Here it comes

And Here I am

Made it

Wasn’t too bad

Time for bed
