Cadre Training in Costa Rica

Image
Just got home from our missions trip to Costa Rica... this morning... at 4 AM. I almost didn't get home though. It's a long story... not for this particular post... but let's just say that the good folks who are in charge of making sure that no bad guys enter our country had me confused with someone else... and they took two hours to make sure I was a good guy. I was happy to cooperate, but new that the delay would cause me to miss my connecting flight to Chicago with the rest of my team (and my kids)! I prayed FERVENTLY. Turns out the connecting flight was about an hour late (I'll let you decide if it was a coincidence or not)... and I was escorted by my new friends in the federal government past all lines immediately to the gate in time to catch the connecting flight with my team. My three teenagers actually looked relieved to see me! Double click any of the pictures to enlarge and get a better look. Also, at the end, I will include a link for more pictures...
