Delayed again!

We arrived this morning to learn our flight was delayed... again.  Instead of leaving at 8am we are now looking at about 10:30 am.  And even better, the plane JUST arrived at the gate:


And there was much rejoicing!!

This should get us to Senegal at about midnight local time & Johannesburg at 11am Sunday morning local time (4am EST & 3am CST). 

Additionally, I was just given this information: 
For families and friends of team members:
In case of emergency, you may contact Africa University Development Office located in Nashville, TN at 615 340-7438. They will know our location and can contact us.
 
We are all doing well.  Keeping in good humor and spirits even in spite of all the delays.  We are going with the flow and having fun getting to know each other and preparing our body, minds & spirits for what lies ahead.  Thanks for all the comments & well wishes!  We've enjoyed them all!!

Next stop... Africa!

  2. When I hung up after talking to you Sat.am, I told Monica it was you and her response was "My, Greg?" Too cute. She and Rudi are talking about you in the big airplane. Hope all connections go well on Sunday. Love You.
