Kenya - Ghana - England

  • At this present moment Karen and Sarah are 50,000ft cruising over 500mph to Nairobi. I should have been with them but for the stolen passport. I spoke with them though, first thing this morning as they passed through to duty free and prepared to board...bon voyage my special and dear family
  • Charis, Esther, Alexander, Jacob and Matthew firmly on Cotswold soil in England.
  • Me, waiting for a passport replacement here in Accra , Ghana.

A family spread accross such a wide expanse and soon Naomi (sister - see link right side of blog) will be jetting to Vancouver to live.

Reflections on the robbery:
It took me the whole of Tuesday this week to get over the emotional experience Monday had been. When I spoke about it, I found myself reliving the emotional highs and lows and scary parts. I must confess, until I get my new passport and exit papers for a 2 week break and until I get on the plane I'm living in a small amount of uncertainty still. Overall though whatever happens, every moment is an experience, an opportunity to live and what a privilege to travel. Despite set backs and the increased levels of effort, travelling opens our minds and challenges our status quo, it introduces the variety of other cultures and remoulds our value system - for the better if we can.
