Coming Home



Returning to Melody felt like coming home. Our favorite staff greeted us and asked about our trips and travels. We had a great breakfast, were greeted by enthusiastic hugs by our team members that were there, and hauled our bags back up to the third floor apartment. Scott graciously gave us the day off so we could rest and recover from the especially exhausting days we spent in Ploiesti, and traveling in general. We all got cleaned up, did some laundry in the sink, and hung it out to dry in the European way – on our balcony. We spent the rest of the day just recouping. I sorted through a few hundred pictures, and worked on my blogs from Suceava. It was a much needed day of rest and relaxation after the grueling pace we had kept the week before.

Wednesday evening we all had dinner together and took turns sharing stories back and forth of our different experiences during our time here. It’s amazing how similar situations impact all of us differently.  Even though all of the ladies worked at the Maternity Hospital, each one shared different stories and different parts that touched them a special way. And for the three of us, apparently dubbed the three amigos by our team, each shared different things in relation to our experiences.

Thankful for Hotel Melody and the amazing staff,
Ali
