Today we leave Bali. Originally we bought tickets with an airline that is usually pretty awful, but they are the only ones that have an afternoon flight from Bali to Jayapura. The other airlines have flights through the night. Wouldn’t you know, that this airline, Lion Air, decided to switch their flight. So now we will be leaving at 6 p.m. and fly to Makassar where we will sit until 2:30 a.m. and then fly to Jayapura. UGH! What a way to end a vacation.
We will get to Sentani at 7 a.m. on Monday, go home and sleep a bit, and then it is off to do a huge grocery load since the dorm kids come on Tuesday, and school starts on Wednesday. We will hit the ground running.
But what a fantastic summer. The kids keep talking about all of our amazing memories. How many kids can say that they spent their summer with family in Wisconsin, went up north to their great Grandpa’s cabin, birthday parties, picnics, hanging out in downtown Chicago and going to Navy Pier, Virginia, New York, got to see all the sights in Washington D.C., go to a water park, bowling, fishing, swimming, tubing, then travel to Tokyo, Singapore, and Bali?????? My goodness! What a summer. We sure packed it full!
Thank you to everyone that helped make this so fun! Thanks to Mom and Dad for letting us all live together in such wonderful harmony, and Papa Don and Priscilla for letting us stay there as well.
Love you all-

Here are some pictures of Bali-
1. When we first got there, we were so very tired. Cale fell asleep at the table. 2. The next morning eating breakfast at the hotel, we were much more awake. 3. Touching the wall of water 4. Cale taking a nap in one of the cabanas
5. The pool at the hotel (doesn’t that look inviting?) 6. A man dressed in celebratory garb 7. One of the many beautiful sunsets 8. Making friends at the pool (Wyatt and Chris talked to the boy in the red shirt about Jesus!)
9. One of the water pedestals that they decorate each day 10. Some people doing a native Balinese dance at our hotel
