Our friend Leah and her friend Mark

So our first stop on our trip is London, England. Our flight from Calgary takes us right into London. And it so happens that a good friend of ours from Bible school is living and working in Northern Ireland. Her name is Leah. She is going to be meeting us that same day that we fly into London. We'll meet at the airport and then spend a few days with her as we site-see London. Leah has a friend named Mark which lives in London and is so graciously letting all three of us stay at his "flat" while we're there and is also acting our personal tour guide. How great is that! I'm so excited that our trip is starting out this way. Mainly, because we'll see our friend Leah which we haven't seen in like 2 years and it will be a comfortable feeling seeing someone you know in a place that we've never been before.
And then, at the end of our 3 1/2 months, we'll meet up with Leah again in Paris, which is where we fly home from, and spend a few more days with her there.
