Hello everyone!
Thanks to your prayers and support, we all made it to Belgium! Mom and I got on all our flights, even though we were flying standby - thank You God! We left Washington D.C. on Friday at 6pm. and only 7 hrs. later we were landing in Brussels at around 7am on Sat. I'm not a fan of jet-lag. We walked around Brussels all day long, stumbling upon a Christmas parade and looking at the incredible architecture that's been untouched for hundreds of years. One of the pics is from the parade, and one is from the "Grand Place," which is the main square downtown. And don't forget the waffles and chocolate! I also got my pic with the apparently famous "Mannekin Pis" statue.... translated that means "Peeing Kid." It's literally a statue of a peeing boy, who happened to be dressed as Father Christmas today :)
God has been good, and I trust that our flight to Monrovia, Africa will go smoothly tomorrow. Talk to y'all later.

Hey Kelly, Mom and Dad! We've been tracking your blog and are glad to hear of your safe arrival in Brussels. We all are praying for you! It's great how God is working everything out. Can't wait to see you on the 14 --- Michele, the boys and the Whittiers.

Love the pics! Jeff has been right where you've been, we've got photos of the same places, but the statue wasn't so nicely dressed!
So, I take it you resisted any urges (in your jet lag state, of course) to reach out and trip the stilt walkers? LOL!
Praying for your trip and looking forward to your next installment!
Emily
