In Transit

Yesterday my roommate Val and I headed to London (Deb our other roommate is already in India for some early work) to visit our intern director Jean. We saw the St. Paul Cathedral -uhhhmazing and Shakespeare's globe. After all those high school years of reading Macbeth, Romeo and Juliet, etc. it was incredible to see the theater. Also, I'm getting used to the public transportation here-- almost a train expert but as for the tube, I would be totally lost if I didn't have Val with me.

We had dinner and spent the night at Jean's flat. In the morning we took the tube to Hillsong church. It was such a good day. First off, it was sunny and warm (it hasn't been too cold or wet yet). Secondly, on the tube I sat down in between two ladies. I glanced to my right and noticed one lady was reading her Bible. and then I turned to my left and another young lady was also reading her Bible. I thought--wow, this is really encouraging to see that on a Sunday in the midst of tube chaos. Thirdly, on the train ride back, Val and I had a fun time meeting and getting to know Christina (shout out to her if she gets the chance to read this :)) It was really great to talk with her about life-- culture, jobs, and traveling.
