strange as it may seem, pizza hut actually tasted a little bit better half way around the world. maybe it's because we're half way around the world. yesterday evening we walked from the bible college we spent the night at to a mall (plaza romania) about a mile away. over pizza we heard daniel (our host) tell stories about growing up in communist romania. his family had to wait in line each week for bread and other necessities. his father was a bible smuggler. he told us one riveting story of the secret police busting into their apartment searching for bibles. his family placed a bag full of bibles (a crime that would have meant prison) on daniel's bed, he was 13 at the time. they must have assumed that the bags belonged to daniel; they didn't notice. it's amazing to think how much we take for granted. imagine a bag full of bibles landing you in jail. -Paul














p.s. we were really impressed this piece of pizza that was a large as tess' head, but then again tess doesn't have a very big head.
