The day started with the team meeting outside of the Delta terminal. We soon find out that our dear Ashley has left her passport at home. The conversation went as follows:
Angie:"Wait you are kidding right? You didn't bring your passport?"
Ashley:"It wasn't on the packing list!"
Good thing Ashley has AWESOME parents who brought her passport down to the airport. As we are on our way to security we realize that Julia has left her passport and boarding pass in the bathroom stall. She realizes this about 30 minutes after the fact. If you know Julia at all, frantic panic filled the air. Angie, surprisingly, was the one who was staying calm. They went from every lost and found, to the cleaning lady, to the poor people in the stall. It was about an hour and a half with the rest of the team at the terminal waiting and praying for it to show up that Julia and Angie were running all over the Atlanta airport. Sure enough it showed up at 5:04 with our flight leaving at 5:50. God is good!
Our flight lands in Prague and everyone is extremely excited to get off the plane. We use the bathrooms and find that the water is yellow. Yes! We go to board our next flight to Estonia and of course where are Julia and Taylor's passports? On our previous flight, which by the way was being boarded. Kyle to the rescue! He took off to get Taylor's passport and found not only one passport but two. Hmmm I wonder who's? It rymes with Ulia.
You could say it was an eventful day, but God prevailed and landed us safely in Estonia.

Yeah! I'm glad that you ALL made it to Estonia! Perhaps someone should collect all passports and hold them until departure...just a thought.
