Tomorrow or Wednesday I shall be hitting the road again and driving south east along the Rhine. The plan is to be in Berlin for the final of the World Cup but I have until July 9th so will take my time and see more of Germany in the mean time. Part of me hates to leave here as I have had such a wonderful time with Cathrin, Maria, and Andre and all those I have met through them. Being here has given me the opportunity to settle in to the fact that I have really left home and allowed me to prepare emotionally for what lies ahead. It has also reminded me of the grace of God in my life that I got the support I needed in my time here.

I know also that my road will not end so soon and so I must press on and continue the journey I have set out for. After Berlin my plan is to travel on to Poland, to Russia if possible, and then on down through Eastern Europe towards Greece and Turkey. I don't know yet that I will make it that far before I get tired of being on the road. Whenever I see a world map I realize how much of the world I have yet to see, perhaps places more suited to the life I want to lead in the future. I am excited to be searching for the place that I want to settle down for my future.

I have added some new pictures to Lovable Quirks here
