Today was a full day of meetings for the Board of Directors of the Maryknoll Lay Missioners. Some recurring issues such as retirements plans for older lay missioners surfaced again–that is an on-going concern in the organization–but there were also new issues to address as the organization adjusts to several new personnel in key positions.

October Trip — Itinerary
It’s taking me a little bit of time to learn WordPress, the content managing software (as they call it) which I am now using for the landing page of my website. I want to be able to create Pages of lasting content, like in my old website, as opposed to Posts like this one. On Thursday I should have some content ready for the first page that is now listed in the sidebar on the right. Click here to see what it looks like now.
On the Road (Monday night)
The trip to the US started Monday evening, 10 October, with a motorcycle taxi ride to the airport at supper time. The roads at that time are (1) jammed with traffic and (2) full of food vendors like these stalls selling roasted chickens, ducks, and fish.
It’s 10:48 PM Tuesday night in New York and I just arrived at Maryknoll. Follow this trip here starting tomorrow.
On the Road on Monday
Monday evening I catch a 9:30 PM flight from Phnom Penh to Bangkok and then at 1:30 AM I fly from Bangkok to Shanghai on my way to the United States. I have a seven-hour layover in Shanghai (that’s LONG but it was $700 cheaper than the alternative!) and then fly from there non-stop to Newark, arriving Tuesday night at 6:30 PM there. I’ll be at Maryknoll, New York the rest of the week for a board meeting of the Maryknoll Lay Missioners. Then on Saturday night I’ll fly to Louisville, Kentucky for a family reunion.
