'Birth of Israel' was my heart's requisite as I prepared for Sukkoth 08. This was my first feast visit. I had a plan to put in place that had to synch with 'the plan' of my heart, for the time. http://www.travelujah.com/blogs/entry/- Birth-of-Israel-was-my-heart-s-requisit e-as-I-prepared-for-Sukkoth-08-Determin ed-to-follow-the-call-I-set-to-a-...

I got the chance to visit with Michal Newman again. And I'm glad because I could help her with some "guy/house stuff". A door here.... a window fix there. What's that?! Your bedroom doesn't "feel" right? Don't worry. I know fung shui! BAM! POW! "Wow Brandon! It's like a new room! How can I ever thank you?!". "No need little lady, your happiness ...

Hey Everyone, I guess this is the start of my travel journal. I'm not in Peru yet but I figured I'd make a short entry with expectations and hopes before I head out. I have 4 more days until I leave for Peru and I'm excited but still a little behind on preparation. I have yet to pack and get everything ready for my trip! I guess I'll use the res...

Okay, we are all set to go.... well, i still have to pack. But we are getting pretty close anyway. I just wanted to set up this blog so I could post updates along the way. Here's hoping I can actually get it to work! Here is the Itinerary: 8/29 Detroit-Stockholm 8/30 Stockholm 8/31 Stockholm 9/01 Helsinki 9/02 Helsinki 9/03 Tallinn - Berlin - Mu...

This was a VERY short connection-- the first miracle of the trip? Our bags made it onto the correct plane!!

The lead up to the trip was pretty hectic. For those who don't know I was in Boston for 10 days, home for the weekend, Indy for a day for my (last) finger checkup, then off to Saipan the following day. The afternoon before I left for Boston, I got the green light for a business side trip to China while I'm in Saipan. That involved a whole bunch ...

I cannot believe even it is First Class, Northwest still doesn't serve any real food at the meal time. No wonder they have done so poorly in attracting passengers. I threw out almost all my miles in Continental One Pass account to get a free ticket on Business-First Class. However, even on a First Class, Northwest still managed to disappoint. Bu...

Although we spent most of the day driving to Detroit, we did make one stop that we now recommend. Our brother, Ben Starling, told us we had to stop in Frankenmuth, MI. It's not too far off the interstate, but I really didn't want to stop. I made the mistake of putting Kelly on the phone with Ben and once he started telling her about 'Zehnders' f...

Flight reaches Detroit on time our immigration is cleared without any problems ( even got a welcome home - which is rare). We had to get our baggage , go through customs and then recheck our baggage ( took about an hour in total). Then we headed to catch our flight back home to DC.

I have been out of the country now for 20 months. As I was walking through the immigration and customs I was thinking about many things. The first of which was: wow everyone sounds funny. The second was: we are still scared of terrorists. I went to immigration and he asked me all sorts of questions. Apparently my answers don't fill the scroll do...
