Day 1 We Made It!

20 hours of travel and 1 more hour in the van.....and we have arrived!  Especially happy for Lee to be out of the plane as the leg room was very little and he has LONG LEGS!  We were greeted at the airport by a relative (we think) of our guide, Evans.  We whizzed through visa and customs and all of our luggage did make it!  Evans met us outside the airport with the driver of our van, Nirdin.  There was no hand shake from Evans.........huge bear hug for all!  He greeted us like we were long lost friends....it was so warm and inviting!  He reminds me of a happy, loving, Michael Orr (from the Blind Side).  I wonder if he knows Jesus (Yezu).  It's going to be a fantastic adventure and I (Jami) can't wait to tell you all about it!  It's time for bed (11:05 Arusha time).  We must get ready for day 2!  Tomorrow we will take the day to get acclimated to our 10 hour time difference and take care of some administrative details.  I can't wait to see Arusha in the daylight! Mungu (God/Jah) akubariki (bless you). pronounced: Moongoo akoobareekee.  This is a term will will be using all the time!  Lala salama (Good Night)!
