We Have Arrived!

What week it has been! After our 7 weeks in Virginia, we traveled back to see family and friends, packed up and flew out. We arrived after 22 hours of traveling with all 19 pieces of luggage, 4 carry-ons, and 1 double stroller! Our first night in the guest house was an experience with all the new sounds, smells, no running water, and mixed-up sleep schedules.

Our second night, the water was turned back on but the apartment plumbing was backing up. Water from the toilet, tub, and drain in the floor began backing up into our apartment. Needless to say, our friends packed us up again and moved us to a team member's apartment.

After several weeks, we are finally into sleeping through the night. We have enjoyed traveling around the new city, getting to know the metro system, meeting our teammates, and hunting for an apartment.
