We made it to London! It's pretty cold and trying to snow....we're hoping that the snow will hold off so our flight is not delayed from London--that would make our arrival into Uganda even later. The trip here was uneventful and most of the team members got between 3 and 5 hours of sleep. We're anticipating a bit more tonight as we overnight in London at the Ibis Hotel. We fly out again in the morning at 10ish.
Because we were delayed slightly upon our arrival and check-in at the hotel took a little longer than normal..we decided to not make the trip into London. Well, most of us did. It seems the shopping in London was a call the girls could not resist so off they went.
Now, we are moving to our respective rooms (that are much smaller than you might think) to sleep on soft beds (that are much smaller than you might think) before enjoying breakfast (that is, not surprisingly, much smaller than you might think).... it seems we do everything BIG over in Canada/USA...even compared to our 'first-world' neighbors.
I will attempt to confirm our safe arrival in Entebbe via the blog.
Until then...thanks for your prayers.
So thankful to hear everything has been smooth so far! Everyone around the church office has been wondering. Couldn't help but think of you guys when I woke up in the middle of the night! Hope the girls found some fun things in London - the shopping there is SO great ... and that the rest of the trip will go smoothly. Praying for you.
ReplyDeleteScott,

Glad to hear everything went well thus far. All the best for the rest of the journey.
ReplyDeleteGood job Team! I trust the layover/shopping in snowy London was just what you needed heading into the 95% humidity in Kampala!!?? I pray your Canadian bodies adjust quickly and your minds are sharp for the days ahead!.....still raining here.. :(.....Have Fun!
