Discombobulated

Hello. I apologize but this post will probably be a bit discombobulated as there are things I want to say and it's also after eleven and I just want to go to sleep.

First off, thank you from the bottom of my heart to every guy who has ever walked me home. Whether it was on your way home or completely the opposite direction of where you wanted to go, thank you!

Next: I rode on a bike today. Not like a normal person where I pedaled myself. No, I rode on the little back thingy where you can put like a small messenger bag. So my behind is a little bit sore right now. The experience was fun but my bum is not happy with me at the moment.

And lastly, a quick run through of my day. Got up around 9 and got ready for church. Radek called a little before ten and we decided we would meet at the main entrance to Tivoli at 2:30. Around noon I left for church. I took the bus and booked it from Norreport Station to the church. I did not initially see anyone I had sat with last week but the Interim Pastor's wife recognized me and asked if I'd made it to work okay last Monday. There were two baptisms during service today and the sermon was on the end of James, the Prayer of Faith. I introduced myself to a family visiting from Missouri and then booked it out of there. The first time I saw a clock it was 2:35 and I wasn't even to Norreport yet! I hopped on a train to the Central Station and then booked it to the Tivoli entrance. By the time I got there it was nearly 3. Radek was still there and I immediately apologized for making him wait so long. He teased me and off we went to the Glyptotek. Basically it was a collection of Greek, Roman and Egyptian sculptures. Then the biking for a bit and the change of plans. We met at another train station and had dinner at his house with David, a Spanish student working at DTU till the end of July. It was a nice dinner but I didn't leave till 9:45. And this is the reason for my thanks: I had to walk to the train station alone. It took me 25 minutes to get to the local station only to realize it was then after ten and the next train wouldn't be for half an hour so I walked to the bigger station, another 15-20 minute walk and caught a train to Hellerup. I got off and was blessed enough to catch my bus right before it left and got home right before 11. It was more stressful than I thought but I am so glad I am home. I came in the door and saw Lise and said hello then goodnight and booked it up the stairs. My heart was still racing from being alone. Denmark is an incredibly safe place; very low crime and all that but it is still new enough to me to have been a bit fearful. Lise just chatted with me and put my mind at ease and was sympathetic. We did decide, however, that I will be getting a SIM card TOMORROW. That way if I'm ever lost I can call her for directions or she can come pick me up.

I am glad work is tomorrow. I've had enough adventure for today and work is a routine and safe place. I am so glad to be back at the house you have no idea. This is an experience I am glad I had but I am ready for some time to recharge after today.

God is good all the time. This is evidenced by my getting a train and a bus home and for the sun in Denmark not fully setting till after 10:30.

If you would pray that my attitude tomorrow would be one that is willing to work and that I would not turn away from adventurous opportunities in the next seven weeks I would appreciate it.

Until tomorrow,
Bekah
