Hey Friends and Family!

        Here we are making our final preparations for backpacking! If any of you have been on facebook recently you might have heard of our adversity's regarding our train passes. We had to have our train passes sent to my mom, because they only ship to America. She sent them in a box about 4 weeks ago, and they have not arrived. They told us they would arrive in 6-10 business days, which usually doesn't happen, but they never take 4 weeks. They have not arrived yet, and we were set to leave yesterday. We are a day or two behind schedule as is, and so now we are trying to figure out what we want to do. If the passes arrive while we are gone, we can return them, but it will take takes four weeks to process. We will also loose 85% of the money we spent. We can them buy them here, but it will cost us 20% more. So we will end up spending a lot more than planned! So please pray for us that we will have wisdom in deciding what to do. Also pray our passes come on Monday as they could still possibly come!
       If all goes well, we will hit up 15 European countries! Starting from Hungary we will travel to Croatia, Italy, Switzerland, France, Monaco, Spain, England, Dublin, Brussels, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Germany, Chech Republic, Austria again, Poland and back to Hungary. If anyone has any cities or places in mind that they would recommend, please post a comment!
      Chaney arrived on Saturday, and with the delay we have been packing and repacking, washing clothes and relaxing, So it has not been a huge loss of time in our vacation, just a loss of time in traveling all the places we wanted to see.  We will try to post often on our trip, and post pictures too! Stay tuned! And please pray that our tickets come, and that we are wise with how we travel. Also we need prayer for protection in our journey! Thank you so much for your prayers and support! We will keep you posted on all happenings!

Love, Jono and Sarah
