Safe Arrival..part two and days later

Jambo! So its Monday here and we have been so so busy. We finally made it in Saturday night around 800 (local time) which comes to just over two and a half days of traveling. We are very excited to be here and already have so much to tell everyone! Updates might be few and far between because electricity comes and goes in Bagamoyo.

A couple of quick highlights...yesterday we walked along the Indian ocean. B took pictures, get ready to be jealous. We also toured the first catholic missionary in Africa-pretty amazing! Every minute really has been an adventure its hard to write about everything that is happening in our lives. We just want to thank you all for the love and support you have given both of us in helping to make this dream a reality.

Kwaheri!

Love and prayers,
Monica and Bridget

  1. Good morning girls. I was hoping that we would hear from you today. We figured that you would be busy getting settled. A few updates for you...Tim left for Kiowa yesterday. We packed the truck up and he looked like the Beverly Hillbillies all tied down in the back. Mom, Sam and I went to Father Patrick Rielly's first Mass at SEAS. It was very special. And then we took Mox on a long walk. We miss you and can't wait to hear more. Today is Memorial Day and we plan on going to Mass.

  4. Bridget, I am looking forward to following your adventures in Tanzania. Are you there as tourists or for another reason? Are you and your sister traveling alone? How long will you be there? I hope you have a wonderful time and many "best day evers". I will be remembering you in prayer. Love and blessings, Barbara Berg
