I've had a serious case of "vacationitis" this week. It's not really a vacation - but "business-tripitis" makes me sound weird. But it's exciting to take a long weekend away from responsibilities and be able to learn, observe and be rejuvenated.
Had an uneventful flight from SeaTac to Santa Ana (not considering the incredible turbulence and rather bumpy landing). We got checked into our hotel room and even had a few minutes to rest and catch up with one another - I'm rooming with two other children's pastors.
Met up with the rest of the group for dinner. There are 12 of us - two leaders from our network office, hosting the trip, as well as one's spouse, 5 children's pastors and 4 youth pastors. Had a huge dinner at Claim Jumper - enjoying the chance to get to know one another better, then wandered around the adjacent mall (which gave me a chance to buy a few things I'd forgotten to pack - I always forget something!) We even stopped at the grocery store on the way back to the hotel to stock up on snacks - these guys have thought of everything!
Stayed up late (well, late for me!) with the girls, and definitely was ready for bed when we finally turned out the lights at 11.
