Day 3 in the PM

Last night (it is now Friday AM in BG as I'm writing), I went with Robin to a women's fellowship.  (it wasn't a Bible Study as my earlier post said).  I felt so privileged to meet and talk to so many women ministering in and around BG and have also spent time in Romania and other places.  Many of them are leaving the field for various reasons.

But the house was situated on top of a hill/mountain overlooking Sofia and I felt like I was in Italy.  It was breathtakingly gorgeous.  I tried to find my camera but I lost it!  It might be in the car we drove into to the town where the girls were. 

One of the gals was a native BG.  She goes into a lot of places that people would not find "joy."  Evidently, she goes in a very difficult Leukemia ward of a hospital and ministers to families there.  She loves the Roma people, many of the missionaries are finding a lot of open hearts in these communities.

I also learned that BG girls love to dance. They will do hip hop dances and are very talented.  (our girls showed us their love of dance and you could tell they were working on some of their dance moves)

I'm getting over my cold but bad allergies.  I had a panic attack on the plane down here because I couldn't breath.  The same thing happened last night.  My ears are clogged and sinuses inflamed, almost like an asthma attack (that I don't think I ever had).  But when I load up on meds,Ii'm OK. 

Today we sigh power of atty and other things.  then Scot giving us personal tour of Sofia, emphasis on Church History.  So excited and blessed.  Then on to Paris for one night in lay over.  thinking we'll take the RER transportation to various places and just eat from the carts.  to sit down and dine would take hours and we only have a short time.

I miss Anton so much.  In some ways I'm glad he wasn't hear because of the hardship of travel and time change, but after the 3rd day, it is very painful for me to be without him. 

I have my video camera that I brought so if I don't find my camera I can actually use that for pictures.  And I have the disposable camera I bought fro the girls that we ended up not giving them.
