Day 2 - Getting Settled

Good Morning from Arusha, Tanzania. We had a hot shower, a good night sleep (6 hours) and we are ready to go! Today is an "adjustment" day. Money exchange, getting water bottles, post cards, and working out the time change!  We were surprised to wake up to rain and wind. The weather reminds me of the east coast....humid and so green! It's a little cooler than I thought it would be, but it is "winter" over here right now. We are staying at a nice hotel for our 1st two nights....kind of like a Marriot (see pictures below). Our hotel is on the main highway....Dar es Salaam, Tanzania to Nairobi, Kenya.  Breakfast at the hotel was buffet style with fruits, potatoes, eggs (with white yolks), miniature french toast (for Mitch), cheese, and an interesting fried bread.  Lee, Mitch and I had coffee and Anne had tea (surprise, surprise).  Tomorrow we will travel into Kenya and visit our 1st clinic where we will be able to give them the supplies we gathered! EXCITED!
