Departure Day-Portland Airport

---

Yes, okay, we live in Sequim, and we're flying from Portland, OR, to Tel Aviv through Frankfurt. We're sitting in a Starbuck's listening to French music, looking at an Alaskan Airlines Eskimo. Are we international or what??

We spent our first night, last night, at Bob and Julie's (Ron's sister), and Julie took us to the airport this morning. Nothing too eventful unless you consider their terrific hospitality or the downpour on the way.

And yes, we've leaving on election day. Depending on who wins depends, we may or may not come home...

But we're here and ready to go ~ now they're playing Salsa music! Until next time!

international-ites!
Hi you guys.... I love being in the airport!! I guess because there is a pending adventure and it is the beginning stage. Thanks for sharing your experience there. Are you serious aboutnot coming back home?? Sounded from Ron's previous email that you guys are considering a move to Israel... is that true?? If it is...wow!!! Looks like we will be going on a cruise to Paul's missionary journies sometime in March. If you're still there maybe we can hook up for a visit :-) We're going to Windsor this weekend...no suite like we had with you guys but we're looking forward to it. Love you, Marietta
