Hujambo! We are here after 20 hours of flying time and 6 hours of layovers. The weather is warm, muggy and overcast and not a mosquito in site --yet. Thank you all for your prayers, God was gracious with us! We made it without a hitch, our flights and connections went very smoothly, even with Emirates Airlines! And, everyone traveled very well.
We just finished our welcome dinner with Mgullu and Davota and toasted the beginning of the ministry with a full round of Orange Fanta's! Picture will follow soon!
Tomorrow we'll spend the day with Davota around Dar soaking in some sites, buying some groceries, and some other goodies plus buy our ferry tickets for Zanzibar. DougR and DougM will be at the church with Mgullu and Jenory setting up the soon to be Internet Cafe. The earnings from the cafe will be used to sustain the learning center. Later in the day Nimfa and Jocelyn arrive and then off to a BBQ at Mgullu's we go.
We'll have a wedding celebration on Sunday for DougR and Melanie. They were fitted with their wedding clothing today! I can't wait!
Okay, I too, am off to slumber-land. We'll log in again tomorrow and hopefully post some photos for you!

Glad you all made it. Keira says to tell Mom she loves her.
When will we see pictures?
Hi Guys! Well I sure wish I was there with you. I hope your flight went well and you all arrived there without incident. We're all praying for you here. Tell all my friends back in Africa I love them in Jesus name. And as Arnold always said, " I'll be back." Suzanne- Watch Doug's back since I'm not there to do it. Blessings, Larry
