Well, it's Tuesday and Kyle and I are still in Newark, NJ. In an unexpected turn of events, Kyle's passport was left at our hotel in State College after the flurry of graduations that we attended this weekend. And we didn't even realize it until we were in line to check in at the Newark airport! With Kyle's ID 4 hours away, it was impossible for him to fly out yesterday, so we both stayed behind to fly out today. Praise the Lord that we didn't have to pay any fees to change our flights!! The Continental staff was very accommodating and helpful. We were rebooked to fly out today at 2:35 p.m. and will arrive in Lima at 9:30 p.m. (Peru is in our same time zone).
So, yesterday involved some very stressful moments, but in the end, all was well. We hung out in Newark for the rest of the day....not something I would ever choose to do again (Newark is really scary!!). But it was really cool to see the NYC skyline from the highway. I guess we'll have to just come back to tour NYC in August!! ;) Anyway, Kyle's passport arrived this morning at 7:30 and now we can head out and begin the adventure with the rest of our team!
Please keep us in your prayers as well as the rest of our team who is already safely in Peru.
