The Eagle has landed!!!

John sends Greetings from India!!!
He finally called this morning around 10:30am my time it was 10:30pm approx India time. He said his flight was good but very long. He watched 3 movies and read two magazines! John made a friend who is from India yet works in NY and is a part-time photographer also....Due to restricted airspace John said they flew over Russia and Moscow and also Afganistan. John said that when they landed in the airport, 2 local skycaps tried to get him to give them $50 a piece American money and he just refused, they kept lowering the amount until finally one of the Med Journeys' assistants came and found John in the mean time before they got to him the skycaps asked John not to say anything to the MedJourney people (HMMMM) As the assistant from MedJourneys tried to give these to skycaps local cash they skycaps refused! Good thing John is a BIG guy!
He will be seeing the Doctor in the morning and then it begins. John seemed to be in good spirits and sounded okay. I wish I was there with him...
John seems to think it must be some kind of holiday there because there are alot of fireworks and such going off..
John said that the hospital is guarded with Security guards everywhere. I would ask that you please pray for his safety as this time.
He said to tell everyone that he appreciates all the prayers and thoughts that are with him now.
He will be going to bed as we just got off the phone with each other and he was tired..
Well that's about it for now...I am doing okay and just keeping myself busy and talking to the Lord for His Peace and Protection for John
I will write more as it comes in...so far so good. God Bless all of you for your support at this time
