A Night in Paris

Romantic walks, street cafes... well, at plus two that's not what our evening in Paris looked like.  Rather, thanks to Lydia, we were given the name of a wonderful driver, Patrick, and  he gave us a whirlwind driving tour of all the major sights, at night!  It was a real treat to see the Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triumph, etc. etc.  A beautiful city.

Less than one week to go!!

Now I'm getting excited.
Earlier this week I had a long phone conversation with Lydia from Nova Scotia.  Lydia and her husband were in Bamenda for a 6 week CESO term last fall.  It was great to get tips and ideas from someone who had been there so recently.  That, and watching their videos got me pumped!  Thanks, Lydia.
I thought I should up-load a picture (to figure out how before I have the challenges of intermittent internet)  How about one of the white stuff we're going to leave behind!!
Someone asked me if we're going on a mission's trip.  No, we're not going with a church-based group, but our prayer is that we can show the love of God in whatever we do, where ever we are, whether in Canada or Cameroon.

Two Weeks!

Our departure is getting ever closer.  Now that our visa-stamped passports are in our hot little hands again, it seems more real.  Yesterday Dave booked our accomodation for Paris.  Yes, we have a night in Paris!
From there it's on to Cameroon where our adventure awaits....
