and a season for every activity under the heavens:
2 a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
3 a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
4 a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
5 a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,
6 a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
7 a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
8 a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace."

Right now happens to be the time to panic!! I leave for Denmark in THREE DAYS and my camera charger is nowhere to be found at the moment. That's a problem...
Three crazy days remain between present time and the time I fly across the Atlantic Ocean! I can't even believe it. The word "excitement" does not even come close to describing how I feel at this moment!!!! :D (Although "stress" might not be too far off - there is much to do between now and then!)
I have no idea if I will be updating this blog at all during my adventure. I don't want to mentally live in a blog. I find that if I blog too much, my mind is focused more on what I will say about a certain event later rather than actually living in the moment and fully experiencing it as it happens. A goal for this trip is to find a balance. So final answer: I have no idea if I will be updating this blog at all or not, but it's worth checking (if you're interested!) Or you could just wait and I'll tell you stories in person when I return... :D
Looks like I might be a bit lonely on the flight there...
I've never seen such a deserted airplane seat before! At least I won't be too cramped in.
SHOUT OUT TO THE LIONS CLUB FOR SPONSORING THIS EXPERIENCE!!! Especially the South Park Lions for being my sponsor club (and for being super nice and fun when I visited!), Dave Wineman for rushing all my paperwork through the system the day before the deadline, and Debra VanTol for making all the arrangements with Denmark! Thank you thank you thank you!! I appreciate each and every person who has helped make this trip of a lifetime possible!!
And now, I must go find my camera charger. We have been searching the house for the past hour (that might be an exaggeration, I really don't know, but that's how long it feels) with no luck. Time. To. PANIC!
God's got this.
