Arrived in California

A friend and I decided to visit California. So here we are. We were awake, travelling, for around 24hrs. We flew on such a cool teeny weeny plane from San Francisco Airport to Redding. There were 8 of us on the plane. So cool! I was a little bit hyper and weird coz of lack of sleep.

So, now here we are, having slept lots on my friend Rita's floor and couch. I will keep you posted on what happens here on- adventures no doubt!

It's the evening, and we've had a busy day. We went to Sundial Bridge and played worship songs, I lost my camera, we went to Whiskeytown and the Lake, the Sacramento river, the Dam, saw Mount Shasta from afar, stopped at In n Out burger for a (you guessed it) burger. We went back to Sundial and my camera had been turned in. Saw a bunch of obviously BSSM students praying on the bridge.

I feel less freaked out by being abroad today, it think l due to catching up on sleep! Been giving Cody some guitar pointers and getting to know Rita more. It's great to stay with them- the couch is comfy, the food is good and the cat makes me laugh!

I'll tell you what- I wasn't expecting to have a prophetic word of destiny from a Dr Seuss book, but it happened! How little I understand this country, but I do love the talkativeness and friendliness of folk here. England could learn some lessons from these people. People on the street actually say hello to you when you walk by! I don't believe we should use our culture as a excuse for not connecting with people. There are people in England that go days and maybe weeks with nobody smiling at them, let alone speaking and listening to them. That's not right. I need to work on this too, but i'm just saying- we need to take action & not hide away in our alleged 'englishness'. Let's speak destiny and life into people.
