If that weren't enough ....

Ok, don't label me a spammer ... but 1 more thing (again). Hmmmm, maybe that makes it 2 things?

Anywho, we will be visiting schools and college classes, and the people in Russia (as well as Kazakhstan) are very relational. There is more than enough to talk to Russian students about for an hour or two, but to break the ice it is very handy to have some photos with you.

Regular developed photos are great. And if you can blow them up to 8.5" by 11", even better. The latter is easier to hold up to show, but we usually pass the pics around so regular photos work great too.

Week 2 folks obviously have more time for this. But if week 1 folk can get some personal and/or family pics together, you will estabolish relationships and earn the "right to be heard" faster.

Above all, don't stress over any of these 2 posts. It will all work to God's glory (copied tickets and photos or not!!!).
