I guess this is why travel during this time of year is so inexpensive. The top photo is of Cleveland as I was preparing to fly to Newark. I left during a snowstorm in Cleveland - thankfully - no delays. The second is my flight arrival in Zurich, Switzerland. I didn’t even know we were landing - I could see absolutely nothing out the windows - no Swiss Alps, no runway, no other plans, no airport below - nothing but thick fog. The last leg of my journey begins in a couple of hours as I fly to Izmir. One of our parishioners, Sue Roach, is from Izmir. Her brother will be picking me up from the airport and taking me to my Airbnb apartment where I will spend the next 7 days. I’ll meet up with a friend, Jennifer, tomorrow. Her husband is a Turkish man from Izmir who is very ill. She’ll spend some time with me taking me to church and some of the sites around Izmir. I’ll head to Ephesus early next week and then later in the week to ancient Laodicea and the area of Pergamon and modern day Parmukale. Keep watching the blog site for future posts. Flights have been fine with no problems whatsoever.
