We made it in!!! Everyone is all safe and sound, including Jessica S. who we finally got to meet up with in Newark. Aside from a little confusion about baggage, had no problems. All of our flights were on schedule, and getting through customs was a breeze. Thank you for all your prayers! We all can tell that God is definitely with us. The Ivorians are some of the nicest people we have ever met, but the craziest drivers that we have ever seen. We will be posting a video tomorrow of the adventure (trip) here along with a more detailed write up of our experiences. We are just too exhausted to do that tonight.
Tomorrow morning we have the luxury of sleeping in, going to the bank to exchange money, and some of us are even going to buy fabric to have an African dress made specifically for us. Tomorrow evening we will be unpacking and setting up all of our supplies at the clinic, so we can start doing medical and dental work on Friday.
We are having so much fun! Keep the prayers and comments coming! Love to all! God Bless.
I am so glad you made it!!! We miss you at the office- and have been thinking about you all day. We can't wait to see the video and stay in touch- Jess the lab is still intact! God bless you and stay safe.
