We arrived in Africa!

I am happy to report that we arrived well on the beautiful continent of Africa! On July 1st we arrived in Dar es Salaam (The Haven of Peace), Tanzania. We were so exhausted after 20+ hours of traveling. It was so great to take a shower and have a nice meal and sleep in a real bed! The mosquitoes in Dar were unreal though. They welcomed us in full force. We were grateful to have mosquito nets to protect us so that we could have a good night's sleep! The jet lag messed up some of our night's sleep though, others slept all night long after not being able to sleep on the airplane.



The next morning we had a hearty breakfast of coffee, tea, juice, fresh fruit, bread, cheese, eggs and Tanzanian doughnuts. Then we were off again, on a short flight this time of just one hour and twenty minutes, to the northwestern city of Mwanza on the coast of beautiful Lake Victoria.



The last two nights we were so worn out and exhausted by jetlag, not to mention the fact that we didn't have internet access, that we didn't have the opportunity to share with you our experiences on our blog. Hopefully, tonight we will be able to make up for that! So you should be hearing from us!
