Leeland

It was our first trip to the Netherlands and they didn't disappoint. EO youth day was pretty epic as you can see here...

35,000 kids packed in an arena! Crazy.

The show was amazing. We were a little nervous because it was being broadcast live on Dutch TV!

We went for a bike ride in Arnhem...

Stopped by the WW2 museum...

Rode over the bridge that the British tried to defend from the Germans...

Leeland showed his crazy bike skills...

After an interview they gave us raw herring, a Dutch delicacy. As you can see we didn't finish it! Bleck...

Oh and we found the Shire while we were on our bike ride. Frodo was a jerk.

We love you Holland! Good look in the World Cup. Arjen Roben is Lee's favorite soccer player by the way. See you in August!

After and AMAZING show in Arhus, Denmark last night, we had a nice day off in Copenhagen today. Went to the 17th century Rosenborg Castle and saw the crown jewels and then basically walked around in the rain and took in the sights. The weather was a bummer, but we had a good time hanging out with each other and trying to figure out the underground in Danish. And apparently the famous mermaid statue lady is in China right now, so... thanks China! Oh, and Leeland lost his wallet. : (

Now for a bit of sleep and a flight to London tomorrow. peace!

I've got to hurry because my computer is running out of battery and we have a plane to catch. We had a 9 hour lay over in London today en route to Africa. Instead of sitting in the terminal all day we decided to explore a little bit.

Here are some pix...



Got on the Heathrow express into london...


We stopped by St. Paul's Cathedral. Probably my favorite place in London. It's been there for 300 years and it's the most amazing thing you've ever seen inside. Unfortunately you can't take pictures in there. :-(


St. Paul's


We had to go see Big Ben. Classic.


Love you guys! Talk to you in Africa. Please be praying for us; we're kind of tired.


Thanks!

So... hello folks. After about 17 hours of travel we've arrived in Oslo, Norway. Our friendly hosts showed us around the beautiful city today. They were kind enough to put us up in a really nice apartment in the city centre.

I'm out on the balcony enjoying a clear crisp night, and using the beautiful gift of free WIFI. Thank God for free internet in Europe... it's the best. We're going to play at a church called Filidelfia tomorrow here in Oslo. We're excited to see who shows up, and as always were expecting a move of God!

I've had about three hours of sleep over the past 24 hours, so I'm going to hit the sack soon. Wish you guys were here with us, and pray for us as we prepare to minister tomorrow.




We made the mistake of climbing that...


the view down was pretty steep. I can't believe people are crazy enough to actually ski down this thing.




Good night friends!!!!

Much love.
