First leg of the trip...

Steph with her outreach gear

Hi...it's me...Bianca...and on behalf of the Thaibodia team, I am saying hello from the Sydney airport.  We left our house at 5:30 am and we just flew from Brisbane to Sydney and are hanging out here until we board our flight to Bangkok, Thailand.  On the last flight, we all got to sit together and we are also traveling with the other team who is going to Thailand and India.  Since I got to Australia, I have been known for my awesome pillow talk sessions. Most people don't particularly like when I wake them up in the middle of the night for pillow talk but Kelsie is always very receptive and we had a lovely pillow talk on the last flight.

Our airport experience has gone fairly smoothly so far...just a few minor bumps in the road.  We started out in the wrong terminal, no big deal though.  When we got here to the Sydney airport, we had to fill out these little green forms for customs.  Steph got a bit confused and wrote "white" on the nationality portion.  We had to remind her that her nationality is actually the USA.

We get into Bangkok late tonight and tomorrow we have orientation.  There are more updates to come soon! We are all so excited and thank you all so much for your support and prayers.
