I'm HERE!! YEAH!!!

Hi everyone...I'm here. I made it safely to Kenya today!! Praise God! My flight from Raleigh was delayed for about 30 min. due to computer problems which made me wonder if i'd miss my flight in Detroit..but thankfully that flight was delayed almost by 2 hours as well..Thats where i met up with Kristin, one of the girls from Texas i'll be working with and living with these next 4 months. She and I had a great time traveling together and getting to know one another a little. In Amsterdam we got a day room where we were able to relax and sleep for a couple hours before our next long flight to Nairobi. Before we left Amsterdam we ate our last McDonalds Quarter Pounder for a long time. That was the most expensive McDonalds meal i've ever had...burger, fries and drink for $10..yikes! I got into Nairobi then took another flight to Mombasa. Thankfully those flights were uneventful and I'm finally at the coast again. ITS WONDERFUL and feels so good to be here. And praise God the temperature isn't quite as hot as normal right now..it rained a lot today so it cooled things down a little. Kristin and I were met at the airport by Dennis:):) and Drew and taken back to our apartment to drop off our stuff. And guess what was sitting on the kitchen table waiting for me...a HUGE beautiful bouquet of flowers!! Made me smile lots and lots. I enjoyed watching Kristin getting excited about the monkeys in our trees!! Then we went into town for some quick lunch and then to Nakumatt (African's Walmart) to pick up some things for the apartment. Oh my, the driving here hasn't changed a bit...craziness!! Now its about 9pm and i can hardly hold my eyes open. Tomorrow morning I'm going with Dennis to his class as he teaches the pastors in his BTCP classs. Im very excited about meeting the pastors Dennis talks about so much. Praise God with me for a wonderful journey here and even for the simple fact that I got all my luggage!! God is so good!! Will send pictures soon! Thanks for your prayers!!
