Day 18

We made it! 24.5 straight hours of traveling! We left our hotel in Amman at 8:00 AM Tuesday (midnight Sioux Falls time) and arrived in Sioux Falls at 12:06 AM Wednesday morning. It was the longest day of traveling yet. The fight to Amman only took 11 hours in the air, but the flight back to New York took 13 hours because of the head winds. Those extra 2 hours are tough. Your body aches and you wish you could get off the plane but it’s a long, wet, way down! The only sleeping we did was on the New York to Minneapolis leg of the trip, a 2.5-hour flight.

Lee is feeling much better and we are all glad to be home. We have made new friends both here and abroad. The experience has truly been a once in a lifetime thing. It wasn’t so much of what we saw, but the journey along the way. God is active in the world and he loves people of all race and color and religion. There is so much to be done in the world to bring God’s love and his Kingdom near. We are thankful for our family and friends and we felt close to you as you journeyed with us through this blog.
It’s time for sleep and reacclimatize to the wonderful schedule we call “our life”. We look forward to sharing our stories and catching up with you all. Until we meet again, goodnight!
