We have arrived!

Hello from South Africa!
Justin, Katie, and I finally arrived to SA. It has been a long trip. We arrived a day later than expected because we missed one of our connecting flights due to a plane problem from Minneapolis. Stayed at Lesburg, Virginia for the evening and then flew out on Tuesday at 5pm. The flight from Washington to Joe-burg was miserable, mainly because after 6 hours of flying I felt like I was going to pass out. I managed the rest of the flight well though. We arrived in East London around 7:30 pm. Received a ride to the B and B and unpacked and went to bed. This morning we woke up and had breakfast with Uli and Marianna, found out they have two children and Uli works as a civil engineer and working on a project to provide running water for all communities that don't have one in their area.
Marianna also gave us a tour of EL. Katie and I's agencies are with in a block from each other, which is nice so we can walk together. Marianna also showed us where we can shop for clothes, food, Internet cafe, and movie theater. Again a nice walk from the B and B. Marianna also told us the area we are in is relatively safe. There is also a nice pool right across the street from the B and B that we can swim at...costing about 5 rands all day equaling a little under a U.S. dollar.
The weather here is nice. If my calculations are right than it is 84 degrees F here with humidity. Well I need to wrap this up....I will post pictures hopefully with in the next week!
Always,
Amber Joy!
