Well ladies and gentlemen, I'm finally here. It was a hectic trip, but the Lord had His hand on me the whole time. I ran into some trouble in Frankfurt and missed my flight into Vienna, but by the grace of God I was able to reschedule my flight for free and I arrived only three hours later than expected!
Already I'm blessed by God's plan for me here. I've met the most fantastic people who have really been such a blessing - and I haven't even been here for one day! I live in a lovely apartment in Brunn, which is the epitome of a European town - I can't get over it! And downtown Vienna is only a short train ride away, so I hope to have pictures up soon once I can explore a bit. But God is certainly good to me and I'm just praising Him for His protection and provision.
I'm thankful that I've adjusted to the time change so well. I think staying up for 30 + hours helped a little bit (no sleep on the plane due to a very awkward seatmate situation - remind me to tell you about it). I slept about eight hours last night and woke up this morning feeling refreshed and I'm still feeling pretty good.
Thank you to everyone who prayed for my trip. I am so grateful for you. The Lord really worked for me and I could definitely feel your prayers.
I'll keep you updated this week about my work and other various sights, sounds and tastes (I had my first weiner schnitzel today) of Vienna!

Praise God! I am so excited for you! It sounds amazing and I can't wait to hear more. All these months of waiting; it doesn't seem real that you're there! Love.
