We have arrived in Africa

By -

We landed in Dar es Salaam and linked up with my sister Maureen.  I would send pictures but we are all wiped from two days of travel and a little embarrassed by how nice our hotel is.  We booked a night at a seaside resort so we can recharge from our long flights before we push on to Sumbawanga tomorrow.  Everyone is in good health and enjoying some beach time before dinner and an early bed.  The one pic shows Dad walking on the shore of the Indian Ocean and Mom dipping her toes in said ocean.  Not shown is Emma who topped us all by diving in immediately.

As part of his preparation for the trip to Sumbawanga Dad joined a local Crossfit Gym and spent months getting in shape.  I am very proud of him for this and grateful to Andrew Romeo for helping him train.  Below are some shots of Dad in the gym on the Tuesday before we leave for the airport.  (See Crossfit Revelation) Farmer's Walk at Crossfit Revelation  Ed with Trainer Andrew Romeo at Crossfit Revelation

After the speech, Ed and Nancy were presented with presents, thankfully no chickens this time, but two hand-made stools and a large portion of the local honey Kizungu village is famous for.
