Home Sweet Home
I made it! We made it yestarday around 9 Kigali time. The flights were ok...a total of nineteen hours of flying- AH! We almost missed our flight from New York to Brussels. Our plane was delayed from Houston so the two hour layover became nothing. Then our gate was changed without our knowledge. We went to the wrong gate and then had to run across the airport but we made it! The flight from Brussels was eight hours long and after five hours I got really plane sick. I thought I was going to throw up but I just sat there really still and prayed. After a while it went away. Me and Claire got to sat with each other on two of the flights and on the last flight no one sat with me so I got to lay down to sleep. We made it with all our luggage and got through customs fine. Today, June 4th, Christy took us around the city and to the market. The people are very friendly and love Levi, the baby. It is hard to understand the English with their accent but I am catching on. I am really tired so I am going to bed. The internet is really hard to get working so I don't know when I can get on again. Jim Beck, my professor from LCU, is here also with his family, which is cool. Please pray for us to be safe and reach people here. So far, I love it here but the humidity is killing me- I'm sweating all the time. Well- goodnight all and thanks for all your prayers! Love- Whit :)

Hey Whit, Glad to hear you are safe and getting use to your surroundings. Is the humidity worse than mamaw's house with no fans? How are the schools? I love you and am always thinking about you.
