We wanted to include a few photos of our welcome party on the ship and of our cabin! The current crew gave us a truly AWESOME welcome on board. When our bus arrived at the dock, the entire crew was on the outside decks waving flags and cheering! I told John that I felt like an Olympic athlete entering the opening ceremony! It was so cool to see all the different flags and people from all over the world ushering us on the ship. Our first day on the ship was truly one of the happiest days off my life. We have longed to be a part of the Logos Hope for so long and it almost seemed like a dream that we were finally on board. God is so good.
On Sunday, we had the afternoon off, so we decided to board a train for Copenhagen! Our ship is docked in Koge, Denmark, which is just about 45 minutes by train to Copenhagen. We loved the city. We had a fabulous time exploring the city. Enjoy a few of John's photos! The highlight for me (Jennifer) was seeing the statue of The Little Mermaid, which sits on a rock in the Copehagen harbor. This small statue is a Copenhagen icon and a major tourist attraction. For those of you who don't know, the original "Little Mermaid" is a fairy tale by the Danish poet and author Hans Christian Andersen.

You are so cute, Jen!! Loving your updates and all that is happening for you two. What are you loving most about the people and culture you are experiencing? How is the ship "culture" different than what you've experienced in the past in terms of the melting pot of people coming together? Keep us updated and know you are in our prayers. Love, Melissa
