Thursday morning we were off to Kenya! So exciting to think in a relative short period of time we would be 1/2 way around the world and have been in three continents! After checking 21 bags, then having to rearrange/lighten loads in carry-ons, we were off to board the giant KLM plane.
First leg of flight left from San Francisco airport to Amsterdam. Flight was about 10 1/2 hours. That is a lot of bum time sitting there! Some of us were doing laps around plane, stretches in back of plane, or just waiting for the next meal. :) It felt like we were being fed every couple hours, and it was confusing to have daytime, night time, then day and night again. Which day is it and what time is it??
We had a very brief pit stop in Amsterdam before we headed off to the second leg of trip to Nairobi, Kenya. This leg was about 7 1/2 hours.
When flight time was all completed we finally were on Kenyan ground at about 8:15 pm. Phew! A long day with some brief shut eye after we arrived at the lodge to prepare us for the busy park day at Paradise Lost.
Can't wait to share the park day experience tomorrow as we are excited to love on those women and their kids and truly celebrate them.
