We have arrived!

We just landed in Johannesburg a little while ago and are now at the Dove's Nest Hotel. There were no problems on the flight...other than that Sarah and Ann's video players were malfunctioning. Vaughn slept very well, as did Ann, Jim, Webb, and Caroline.  We think Betsy might have been so exhausted she wasn't aware of how well she slept.

Lane made two friends on the plane and was given gifts by each of them. Tom (the birthday boy) made sure everybody was happy.

We are a happy group, ready for our first African meal and a good night's sleep before heading to Malawi early tomorow morning!

  4. Ann and Sarah,

    You probably have heard but Vandy, Florida, South Carolina and Virgina are all going to the College World Series.

    We loved the picture Jim sent from his church service yesterday and the story of the goat.

    Sarah - I talked with Sylvia Page last night and she wants you to come talk to her preschoolers about your trip sometime. We miss you and appreciate your text messages and your call.

    Love Dad

    Charles
