Zambia Sweet Zambia

Well I made it. I've been here at our base for a few dys now and am just gettiing adjusted to the time difference. Yesterday was interesting as we spent the entire day in Botswana buying supplies. We ran out of diesel on the way to the border, argued with taxi drivers for an hour over price, shopped for groceries, diesel, petrol, and propane, had the bank cards not work, sat at the grocery store for 4 hours waiting for the guys to come back with the truck, just barely made it on the last ferry, crossed the border after arguing with the officals over visas, and chowing down on some pizzas at the Funky Monkey (our first meal of the day at 8 pm). Talk about an exhausting day! It was a blast though.
Some of the teams I'll be leading have been switched around. Patrick and I will be leading some of the church groups coming out instead of the individual expeditions. We're now leading 6 teams with the first arriving a week from today. I'm looking forward to the ministry ahead and know that God is going to do awesome things!

Here We Go!

In just a few short hours, and after many hours of frantic packing, I will be boarding a plane to Livingstone, Zambia. It will be 22 hours of flight, 3 days of travel total. I am excited about the upcoming months, but could honestly do without the long flight. It will be great and I feel very blessed. Now it is time to sleep! :) I will keep you updated from our base in Zambia.
