Now in Sydney

Just to update you, I'm in an Internet cafe in Sydney. The flight from LA went well but now Delta has misplaced another bag. They say it should be no problem to get it to PNG with me tomorrow. We'll see.

I emailed a missionary here in Sydney who recommended a good church and good activities for the day, so I'll take a look around. It is winter here ... okay not like a Michigan winter, but I may have to buy a sweatshirt somewhere (mine is in the missing bag!).

I talked with a retired pastor on the plane for quite a while. It was very encouraging.

So, given the delay, I think I'm doing pretty well. As long as I can stay away until a reasonable bed time tonight, the time change should go pretty well I hope. Then another day of travel and we begin class on Tuesday morning.

Thanks for your interest and prayer! -- John
