Greetings from Kampala
We expected to arrive here in Kampala to a dryer season, but last night we were pleasantly surprised to hear thunder and wake up to driving rain. It rained most of the morning, and this afternoon we've traveled around town.
The flights were fine, long and cramped, but tolerable. We had quick layovers in Seattle, Amsterdam, and Nairobi.
We arrived last night in Entebbe Uganda and were greeted by a smiling Susan and Ezbon. We drove to our spot at a local hostel, and faded into sleep, waking up early to meet Ezbon at the SPLA office to get our passes. Southern Sudan requires a separate passes from the rest of Sudan, so we had to pick those up.
The plan for the next couple of days will be to get ready for the journey north, and spend some time with the orphans that Susan keeps in her home. Meri will be meeting with each of the orphans to verify their sponsorship information, and Nate's been busy taking photos.
This afternoon we are headed over to Susan's place for dinner and to catch up on the past year. Thanks for joining along with us on the journey!

They named him little Daniel. My eyes welled up with tears. I've been praying for you guys, reading about you guys, tell others about you guys. You made someone in Portugal smile and a man from Nigeria in London have more hope and a man from Niger in Madrid thankful.
Keep changing the world!
