After battling a night of stomach bugs and possibly the most turbulent flight of our lives (small airplanes planes = big BIG trouble), we landed in Arusha and within minutes caught our first sight of Kilimanjaro. It was pretty awesome. There's talk of our taking a trip to hike around the base of it next weekend...stay tuned.
We've arrived at the language center which will be home for the next 3 weeks. The higher elevation means cooler temperatures and less mosquitoes! Hallelujah! And best of all, there is round the clock hot water here. It's amazing what a hot shower can do for one's spirits.
Thanks everyone for continued support and prayers and encouragement.
How stunning! Pole pole, my friends. I'm praying!xx
ReplyDeletethat's such a great view of kili. we drove all the way to the base (marangu)and couldn't see the mtn at all for the couple of days that we are there. glad that you can enjoy the hot water and cooler climate! :) hopefully, some coffee, too!
