We made it!

Hamjambo from Kenya! We (rach, kat and steph) made it safe and sound to Nairobi, Kenya. We arrived Wednesday morning in once piece and with all of our luggage...something we were pretty excited about because we had some last minute flight delays and changes, including a layover in Dubai! Anywho, we had a driver waiting for us at the airport who took us straight to the Maryknoll house where we are staying. We arrived around 8:30am pretty jet lagged, but went straight to a three day course on African culture. It was a long day,but really interesting. We actually have to write a two page paper on what we learned, so we don' really have time to go into it now!
So far, it has been really good. Everyone has been very nice and helpful, and the Maryknolls have taken great care of us. We have our last day of class tomorrow,then head down to the village we will be working in. We're all excited to get to Tanzania!
