July 5, 2007




The flight was unbelievably long, but we had the excitement of so many things to look forward to propelling us. We left our house at 7 am for a 10:45 flight to Atlanta. Then got on a 4 pm flight to South Africa. We arrived in Jo-berg at 4 pm the next day on July 6th. It was joyous (i'll probably use this word 1000 times). From the passport check, we could hear whistling, horns, and cheers. Our hosts and Charity & Faith partners, met us at the airport with a crowd for a celebrity. That immediately pumped us up, no matter how long we were stuck in one seat!!! There was cheering & dancing at the airport, with our orange shirt mass wave of folks taking over the space!! We went to our hotels, ate and crashed, although we were ready to immediately work.
