We were only about half an hour at landing, the Captain made up some of the time on the 8 hour flight. I was closer to the front of the plane, so when I got into the terminal, I waited for the others but didn't see them. Catherine texted me to go ahead and the others were able to find each other. It's good to travel with mostly folks that have experienced the chaos of foreign airports together before.
Our luggage all arrived and we collected it in record time. One of Catherine's friends met us and shepherded us through the rest of the security and helped us get to where we were meeting our driver. Other teams came into a different terminal, so we had a separate vehicle for us and our luggage from them. We arrived at Little Daughters of St Joseph convent around midnight, got our room assignments and parted for our rooms. I got the only room in the compound that still has an electric heater on the shower head and it didn't work. After all that travel, I decided a cold shower was more important than sleep, so I bit the bullet. It was refreshing to say the least. I was able to get about four and a half of on again, off again sleep and felt pretty good this morning before having breakfast and heading out for a safari at the Nairobi National Game Park. More to follow about our Saturday. Blessings everybody and thanks for sharing in our mission!
