Finally Here

I arrived at the Seattle airport at 11:00 AM on January 4th, It is now January 6th and I'm sitting in my temporary home in Windhoek, Namibia! It was the longest journey of my life but I am so happy to be back on the ground, and even more so to be on the ground in Africa.  We didn't do much today because we were all so tired and we had to unpack, but I got a few pictures of the scenery that I will post for all you to look at.  We went to the grocery store today and that was an experience.  Almost everything is different and a lot of things have instructions in different languages so for the first shopping trip I bought vegetables, fruit and granola, I'll try and be more adventurous next time. We are going on a tour of the town tomorrow so I'll try and take lots of pictures to share with you all.  I hope life in the states is going well and I'll see you all soon!

  1. I bet your mom and I would have an interesting shopping experience trying to find non-gluten in a different language. I guess we would have to learn that term. HAHAA!!! Well soak it all in and keep posting. Can't wait to learn more about your trip! :)

  2. hahahaha I don't know if gluten free exists over here yet, you guys would be eating solely fruits and veggies!! I tried lychee fruit today though and it was delicious!
