"Leavin' on a jet plane!"

Hi all,

We are in Borispol airport in Kyiv, just waiting to board our flight. I have so much I'd like to say, especially about the amazing friends we made here. Our farewell from Lutsk was unbelieveable, and we even had some friends meet us in Zdolbuniv along the way! But instead of writing an entry myself, I've asked Vika and Natalia to contribute. They are brave girls. Here are their thoughts!
...
This is my first flight, and I feel just a little bit nervous... But I feel so great and happy that I’m going to Calgary, Canada and that the awesome team (Dan, Ben, Analu) are going with us. I so enjoyed being with these guys in Lutsk! And I just want to thank all of people from YMCA Calgary for giving us so great opportunity to make our experience in YMCA so much better!
Love, Vika.

Nice people around me... I’m full of feelings... So, it’s difficult to make the real pretty nice expression I feel. I feel so comfortable, so welcome with these three charming Canadians =) I’m so thankful for meeting them! All of them have a very gentle spirit from God and I simply love them. With every passing day I realise more and more how much close they are becoming for me. I’m sure Vika feels the same. So, sitting in the airport, singing “Jetplane”, we are going to fly for the first time (we should have been nervous and scared a little), but because of Ben, Dan and Analu there is no any bad feeling. There is sth unexplainable, sth really beautiful, there is a positive atmosphere between us, so I just smile because I’m happy =)
