we're here, part 2
Saturday, 22 Oct.
I do not see my posted blog so I'll try again. ( Admittedly, technology is not me, but I do have expert help. )
Safe arrival , 45 minutes in and out of the airport - a new record!
Time to have snacks and refreshments at the lodge. met by Geoffrey ( formerly Karim), Yolanda, Nora, Elizabeth ( cook - hurray! ) ,Mika, Jennifer and Susan - all giving us hugs and cheers. It feels good to arrive here.
Good sleep had by all and we're all delightfully pleasant this morning. Jacaranda trees are out, rain has come so it's green here, Meru is "out", roads are not dusty. However, the Sekina road to the lodge has not improved. We appreciate our drivers! Relaxing day today, late breakfast, unpack, into town for ATM and shillings ( 1690 per $), lunch at Selma's - yes, Nancy, there was pumpkin soup), Shoprite - 400Tsh for a loaf of fresh bread, (that's about $.25) Now, we're going to unpack the "Larry bags" - eat and sleep early.
Tomorrow is church and well dedication - we'll report.
we're happy, healthy and excited for the next days.
Salama, Mary

It is so good to hear that you all are there safe and happy. Enjoy your one calm day as I know it will likely be the end of that come tomorrow :) When the well is dedicated please give an extra blessing from everyone here who supported the project with hopes, dreams, financial support and just plain support. ~ Kristina
