We have arrived in Cambodia

Just a quick post to say that we are safely in Phnom Penh (pu-nom-pen) Cambodia. It was one heck of a journey to get here and the enemy was working hard to rattle Mark and I at the airports over the camera gear. We got stopped at each location and searched/questioned about some piece. But we remained calm and confident, praying all the way. God was good and poured out favor.
Our room here in Phnom Penh is very nice with the usual amenities and AIR CONDITIONING!! Just having air moving is a blessing. The planes were very stuffy and warm so we were battling a little nausea. After check in (and a potty break to which I was told NOT to flush the toilet paper) we walked across the street to a gas station and bought some ice cold water bottles. We have showered, brushed our teeth (they had disposable toothbrushes and toothpaste on the 1st 11 hour flight. It was so nice to brush up!!) and have done a little laundry so we are ready for bed.
Tomorrow is breakfast (eggs, bacon and hot dogs) and off to church at the training center (the beginning of Foursquare Children of Promise (fcopi.com for more info) here in Cambodia. Beyond that we have no idea.
Keep praying for health, smooth travels with all this gear (we have been the last 2 team members at every stop so far. We don't want the team to feel like we are slowing them down but they have all been so very gracious and helpful!). We are so excited about what God has in store!!!
More tomorrow!!
