We left Portland at 1:05 PM. We slept, ate, read and watched movies on our 10.5 hour flight to Frankfurt. In Frankfurt, Germany we had enough time to go through all the security check points before making to the gate and getting to relax for a little bit before we were on our next flight to Romania.
The flight was 1.5 hours. It was bumpy and we were feeling a little nauseous when we got off the plane. We passed through passport control and we were off to get our luggage. All pieces of luggage arrived and we were on our way out to meet our driver. We were asked by multiple people if we wanted a taxi to which we responded "no thank you" but they kept walking with us telling up how they had the best fares.
The weather was hot and humid, we were tired and a little delirious.
We put all our luggage in the van and we were on our way to drop off Frank, Vanessa and Mitch as they were staying in Bucharest to explore the country.
Amber (the intern at the camp), Florin (our driver) and I were off on our 6 hour drive to the camp. Amber and I were sleeping on and off. Sweating like crazy.
We arrived at the camp where it was nice and cool. Met the California team.
As I was getting my stuff together to leave the camp I noticed a bag. After looking inside I realized it was Frank's with some of his clothes and his passport. We tried to call and find where they were but was not able to, so we emailed them with the phone number and this morning we were able to talk.
We will be meeting in Sibiu and off again to explore the country.
Thank you all for you prayers and continue to pray for our health and safety.
