We made it!

(To South Africa at least!)

One huge plane (a B777 for those interested), 2 cozy seats, 18 refills on water, 2 and a half movies, 15 hours, and 2 very helpful sleeping pills later... We made it to Africa! The flight was not as bad as we anticipated and we both slept a lot. We checked in to our airport hotel, had a nice dinner, and are getting ready to fly out to Lilongwe, Malawi tomorrow to meet our friends and wonderful hosts for the week Katie and Walker Morris (Kate Morris Stanley's parents). We feel like just making here was a big part of our journey and we can't wait to get to Lilongwe tomorrow. Judging from the super slow connection at the hotel... things may get shaky on the blog front once we get to Lilongwe, but we'll try to keep you updated. Please pray for safe travel tomorrow (and for our bags to get there!) and for us to have a spirit of flexibility, thanksgiving, and enthusiasm as we begin our work.


Love to everyone!!
