We've arrived in Uganda! We are all quite tired, but adjusting! The weather is beautiful so that helps. We arrived at the airport in Entebbe and we went right to Immigration and that went very smoothly. The kids and I then went to get luggage started and Steve stayed back to pay the visa fee. I have to brag about my kids a little. They ROCKED!! They grabbed carts and the boys started pulling totes off the belt! Drew even grabbed our heavy tote(70lbs) and lifted like it was nothing!! Ashley grabbed the list of totes and crossed them off the list as the boys pulled them off! I was in charge of Kate and I watched all our baggage. I also grabbed many Ugandans to help carry our totes to our vehicle. When Steve got out, I headed to the van with Kate and about 1/2 our totes. Our friend, John, greeted us as we exited the airport. He then led us to our van and helped load all the totes!! Soon Steve and the kids were our with all our other totes! We quickly loaded up and headed to our guest house. It was a very smooth arrival.
We are now trying to get adjusted to the time change. Ash is having hard day. She is extremely tired and did not sleep well last night at all! Kate was also up at 4:30 am, but seems ok yet! She did sleep the most on the flights.
We have already received a request for money and we haven't even reached home yet! It is amazing how fast that happens! Please pray for endurance and a kind heart as we receive these requests.
We will be driving back to Soroti on Monday. Pray for safe travels back to our home!
Just for laughs: When Kate woke up in the middle of the night, she told Ashley she did not like it here. She wants to go to Uganda! There are too many bugs here! We told her we were in Uganda and she said, "No, we are not!" I think she want to go to Soroti!
We thank you for your prayers as we traveled and we covet your prayers as we adjust and travel to Soroti!
