January 31
So we got here yesterday morning and it is absolutely gorgeous! I'm in love. Spent the night at the National Park Site in Kenya. Saw zebras, giraffes, eland and antelope all along the way that were just chillin... they really are just like deer...tons! This morning on the way to the airport we saw hiennas and storks and more giraffes with babies, it's still like a dream. The lions were roaring last night as we went to bed, and there's monkeys! AMAZING!!!

Not so amazing...
Alright so, they took all of our large bags to the site in Tanzania, so that was nice, but then when five of us went to check in we had been bumped off of our 10am flight, because ppl who were s'pose to fly out yesterday got put on it and bumped us off. Soooo our group has boarded and is leaving soon, and we're left here until 6pm to catch another flight. But, there's free wireless! Yaaay. At least that's the bright side. We'll probably get to the airport in Kilimanjaro around 7 tonight go through crazy customs, and then it's a 4 hr drive to the site, so it'll be about midnite when we arrive. BUT IT"S OK. I'm in Africa, and I'm so happy, and feel extremely blessed, and wouldn't wanna be anywheres else. The people are amazing, the food is delicious, and the sites and sounds are indescribable.

I'm safe, I'm happy, and I'll make it to Tanzania eventually. I'm glad to be with a group. Evereything's good. I'm good and safe, and I love you, and I'll send another email soon.
