Update!


I did not die in what may or may not have been a fire at our hotel. I did, however, leave there and go to Manhattan. New York City never ceases to amaze. I am currently typing this from underneath the 5th Ave. Apple glass cube that I didn't get to visit last time I was here. Tonight was the Apple iPhone premiere. I saw the super annoying guy from G4/TechTV. Beck is playing on the overdriven ceiling speakers, and this place is hopping.

It's funny how as I approached the entrance to the Apple store and they had people clapping as someone would exit I felt more and more like it would be a good idea to buy an iPhone. Again, brains are weird.

Tomorrow I'm gonna try and visit my bro bro at Shiloh camp in NY state. I love having vague directions and hoping things work out. Well, when they actually work out it's fun. Typing on this MacBook makes me want one. I gotta get out of here before I do something dumb.

On that second photobooth shot you look like the little nerdy kid on "Meet the Robinsons." When are you returning to Tennessee?

Whew

On two accounts. The ride today from Magherafelt to Derry was more than I expected. This on two accounts, also. Sights as far as my eyes could see. The other of the original accounts is that I was going to stay with someone in the city tonight, but I think I waited too long to contact them. I checked my email just now to find that I was homeless. WAS HOMELESS. Ha, but God strikes again. I have seen more provision in the last few days than maybe ever. This could be due to me looking for it, but I know it has a lot to do with family and friends praying for me. I realized today that we have to be put outside our usual world to even appreciate what is out there. Last night was a really good night of camping by Lough Neagh (Lock Nay/not Loch Ness). I've so much to say, but internet costs 6 bucks for 30 minutes and those are almost gone. Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you how God provided for tonight. I was looking for an internet cafe to see about an email from the guy I was supposed to stay

Already

This trip has gotten off to an interesting start. Already there have been adventures in simply getting to Belfast. Thankfully, there have been lots of friendly and helpful Irish along the way. Also, God is putting a hand in where need be. Let me tell you how... 1. I got to the check-in counter at Nashville's aeropuerto only to hear that my connecting flight to Newark, NJ was delayed 1.5 hrs. I didn't really have a problem with this, and I thought it might even earn me some flight bucks. No. The delay was due to weather in Houston which earns noone flight bucks. They checked other flights to find that the next definite flight that I could take was Thursday (this was Monday). I finally remember to ask God to fix it, and about thirty seconds later the guy helping me said, "Oh, wait your Belfast flight is a little delayed so it might work out." (or something to that effect) Bonus. 2. There were two other people going to Belfast from Nashville(natives), and they just happe

Tired

*I put up a video of the cliffs on the island here http://youtube.com/watch?v=Je0dsNHjyjs * Today was really good. Let's start with yesterday, though. After making my post and uploading pictures that I wasn't supposed to be able to via the Balleycastle Public Liberry, I trekked on to Cushendall. The ride was nice because the sun had broken through the overcastness. On the way up the hill out of Ballycastle I realized that I hadn't filled up my water bladder (back pack not human pack). I stopped off at a B & B and went inside to ask the owner if I could use a bathroom faucet or something. Now, I've never been inside a Bed and Breakfast, but as it turns out, you don't just walk into the living room and ask if you can use a faucet. I guess I scared the woman a little because at first she was okay with me being there but then she changed her tune and told me that you don't just walk into someone's house and show yourself around (or something like that. I do
