Well, it was a long journey - about 16 hours of flights + a 4 hour layover in London. Started off quite perfectly, when I handed in my suitcase and it weighed 22.9kg (phew!! 23kg was the limit) The flights were smooth - plane food was scrumptious (honestly!!) and we managed to sleep a lot. We arrived in Nairobi on time last night and were picked up promptly and brought to a guest house. We are living for 2 days with a lady, Nancy, and her son Frank. We went to church today with them- 2.5 hours of singing, dancing and only a little bit of preaching - it really was quite a party!
We are bunking right now with a girl from Pheonix, Arizona (her name is Lakenya or "Kenya" for short). We were all wide awake at 4:30AM this morning - hope to have a great sleep tonight - it should get rid of any jetlag. We will find out tomorrow exactly what we will be doing and then probably move to a new guest house.
It's still feels a little surreal...but we are here - Nairobi , Kenya.
