We made it!!

We made it to Africa!! We lost Jessica on the way. She wasn't able to meet up with us in Newark. Her flight couldn't handle the weather (it was raining). She was rerouted and we will pick her up tomorrow at 6am.
Our flights were so long! The first was a eight hour flight from New York to Amsterdam. As soon as we landed we ran to catch our connecting flight to Nairobi. We got to the departure gate as the plane was boarding. We had a 7.5 hour flight to Nairobi. KLM is one of the best airlines. They served us three meals and many refreshments. We watched Paul Bart Mall Cop. So after many hours traveling our rears did not want to forgive us. But we are here. We got in at 7pm Kenyan Time, so 2 am U.S eastern time. We met with our new friends- Kevo, Maya, Nick, Oscar, Kish, Kerah, Jimmy, and Kris. We get to spend out first night in Africa.


Side note: I get to kill and eat a goat this week. So stand By.
Miss everyone . . . Thank you for your prayers.
