Trip Itinerary

So the adventure is about to begin.  The panic is starting as we wonder how we will manage to pack everything!  As our temperature's plummet in the UK again, we try to remember what on earth one wears when the temperature could be up to 20 degrees??!!  We see all the jobs that need to be done before we can head off and we panic again.  And then we look at the possible itinerary and it is just plain exciting and we can't wait to get out there :)

We fly out on the morning of 22nd and arrive in Tokyo on the morning of the 23rd March and we fly back on the 6th April.  Here are some of the possible activities we will be doing during our time in Tokyo.

Sat 23.3 - try to stay awake all day!!

Sun 24.3 - church am; lunch out, begin to acclimatise to the new time zone.

Mon 25.3 - (K in hoikuen; Dave working at home); boat trip in Tokyo - praying for the city

Sat 6.4 - to Narita airport am

 

We are looking forward to meeting up with some of the people we met last time, as well as some of the people the Skippers have come to know in the last 18 months.   This is a prayer trip where we can pray for the work they do, some of the people they link with, as well as the city.  As it is also our holiday we are looking forward to seeing a bit more of Tokyo and the surrounding area than we were able to last time.  We will try to update this daily so you can see what we've done as well as letting you know what we will be praying for the next day.  Do please pray with us and for us as we minister to Dave and Heidi, and those they love and serve and if you have any words, pictures, encouragements for them please send us comments so we can pass them on.
