They Have Arrived

Wow - the team has had an eventful time.  After waiting almost 12 hours in Paris they finally were able to take off for Cameroon at 11pm last night (France time).  Sadly they didn't know how long they were to wait and Paris was rather foggy so they did not get to play tourist while they waited - that would have been nice.  Originally the plane was to arrive in Yaounde' Monday night at 830pm, then at 6am this morning (which is Tuesday in Cameroon).  Apparently there was fog in Cameroon too and they were not able to land.  They flew around for a while and then landed in Doula for 2 hours before flying off to Yaounde' again, finally arriving at 1045am Tuesday.  Only one bag was lost and I received an email about that bag this morning... it's on it's way.  Somehow 12 hours did not allow enough time to get that bag onto the plane or maybe it didn't pass inspection with all the weird tools and supplies.

*Pray for the guys to get some much needed rest after this long couple of days traveling.

*Pray for the money that we had wired to the Kingues last week to be released to them - they are wanting the receipt number and much more information then should be necessary.... if we would have known this we probably would have had them carry the cash to them (live and learn).

*Pray that the last piece of luggage arrives soon.



Here is a picture of the boys (Nathaniel and Jonathan) on the land where the team will be building.
