We tried our best to get a good night's rest last night. About 3:30 am we both were wide awake.... that's about 7:30 pm MN time... and we couldn't fall back asleep until 5 am Kenya time. All in all, we slept pretty well-- the mosquito netting worked out just fine (Jenn was worried about bugs) and we felt so refreshed when we woke up. We got up and ready for the day about 7:30 am (Kenya) and went down for breakfast. We sat and ate, drank coffee, and waited for Chuck and the team to emerge from their rooms. The rest of the team was supposed to come in last night at around 11 pm (Kenya) so we knew they would all be tired and may sleep in. We were scheduled to be leaving for the slum at 9 am. Well, we started wondering what was going on at about 8:30 am-- we still hadn't seen or heard from Chuck or anyone else for that matter. About 8:50 we went and knocked on Chuck's door... no answer. :) So, we called him... no answer. A few mins later, we got a text from him saying he was on his way... the rest of the team's flight was cancelled in Belgium so they never made it last night!!! We are so thankful we didn't run into any problems on our way here. Can't say we were too disappointed.... we would get to spend the day walking all over the slum and playing with the school kids. :) We will update later. Take care!!!
