A couple of funny things ...

This weeks' update follows no particular theme or exotic travels; they are just some random pictures I've taken that are interesting.  I've been saving them for when I didn't really have anything exciting to share.  :-)



Glenn's birthday was this past Wednesday, April 10th.  Because the day was full with other commitments out of our control, we decided to celebrate it on Tuesday by spending the day in downtown at one of the thermal spas, and walking through the Jewish quarter.  We saw this sign on an escalator in Marks & Spencer during our walk and enjoyed a good laugh!



This sign was found in Antalya, Turkey last week.  Not really sure why the guy is stealing the white bar.   What do you think???



This picture isn't so much funny as it is ironic.   The ancient St. Stephens Basilica in the distance with the modern McDonald's sign in the foreground.  Two worlds colliding.



Glenn and I went on a 2 day trip to visit a couple of our families in Hungary and Czech Republic, and this was the sunset on our way home.  A beautiful ending to a great trip!

We now have guests for a few days.  They're from France on a 10 day vacation trip through Czech Republic, Austria, Hungary and Serbia.  They are a week into their trip and are tired so taking the day off to rest.  We're taking the Sabbath rest seriously today and enjoying every minute of it!

We're home until the end of the week when we will be attending a retreat for the families in several countries around Hungary who are on strategy teams.  (Glenn and I are on a support team.)  We've been invited to attend as guests but won't be doing official member care visits.  It'll be great to be with them since so many of them are "our families" for whom we are responsible!

I hope you have a great week!
