Power of phone-age...

I just got off the phone with Shiv, who called me all the way from Spain. Most of the time, I think I take technology for granted, but tonight, I think I was especially grateful for it. The fact that she's only on a two week trip makes snail mail correspondence impractical, so being able to talk to her on the phone is nice, even if my conversational skills are quite lame compared to my passable written word. She got to tell some more stories about all the people she's met of there... one of the most interesting is a group of friends from Israel and Palestine, who even though happen to be ethnically Israeli and Palestinian, are all Christians. She's even made good friends with someone from Bethlehem, so if we ever decide to visit the Holy Land... we have friends to help show us around. Whooohooo. =)

In any case, it's hard to believe this week has gone by so quick... very fast.
