Well, it's actually August 4th right now, morning, but we were way too tired to pull out the computer last night!  It was travel day!  Up early in Kenya to get to the airport for our flight to Kigali - interesting experience.  A big line to get into the airport - there is security screening of the bags at that point.  Then a long line up for the actual flight, we were only minorly panicked waiting in the line watching the clock.  Our luggage allowance decreased on this flight, so even though we had left a fair bit in Kenya, we ended up paying for the extra (we were down to 7 bags from the original 11).

We met the rest of our Rwandan team on the plane when we finally got there.  They looked a little tired as they had been traveling for awhile, coming from Ontario!

After a 45 min stop on the tarmac in Burundi, we finally made it to Kigali!  Because our team increased, so did the amount of our luggage - 7 people, 15 big bags of luggage!!  Our poor driver!
The plane coming from Nairobi was a small one so they didn't get all the luggage on.  All 7 of ours and one of John's were sent on the next flight, so we hung out at the airport for a bit..  It gave us the opportunity to get to know each other.
