Sept 20th, 2007

Hey Ya’ll,

Dave here from the beautiful country of South Africa. Been a good journey so far. I’m happy to tell you that I’ve survived two days of travel, no cuts or bruises, and I’m still breathing. I’m glad I was able to split the flights the way I did because I’ve experienced very little jet-lag because of it. Spent the day Wednesday in London, England with my friend Ashley Pearson. She showed me London in 6 hours. She’s pretty much a super hero. You can see the pics of me messing with the queens guards. It’s a good thing that those guys can’t talk or move because I’m sure he probably would have judo-chopped me with his crazy sword. Flew all through the night again and Landed in Johannesburg this morning. Notice the sign in the airport and what their security logo spells. I thought it was funny. Spent most of the day today chilling by the pool with a new friend of mine named Johnny, from Australia. So it’s been great and restful so far trying to adjust my body to being on the other side of the planet. I’m meeting Randy Harris, and Mel Miles tomorrow, as well as two Australian boys for a trip up to the mountains. Sunday morning at 4am I’ll be traveling to the Pillansburg game reserve for a little safari. And then Monday morning I leave for Bloemfontein to spend my week and the South African LTT. I’m really looking forward to it. I’ll do my best to keep this thing updated when I can with pics and all. I’m still able to receive text messages on my Canadian phone, so please feel free to send them my way if you want to drop me a little note. It’s free for me to receive. I’ll let you know when I get my South African cell number up and running. Miss you all lots. Some of you more than others ;) Please keep praying for me as I journey through this country and through this time. Talk to you again soon,

Dave
