We made it to Africa...safe and sound, no lost luggage, no sick people!!! Johannesburg reminds me of Downtown LA...smoggy, everyone drives a BMW..a CHEAP CAR here (a luxury car is a Toyota Camry)! In the nice part of the city they drive Corvettes, Lamborghini's....South Africa is seen as a 1st and 3rd World Country......so the place we are staying in now is like a 1st world country...we will be working in a 3rd world country next week!
Currently we are staying at a church upstairs. The place is like a dorm floor where we all fit with a living room. It is very nice! The team is amazing and today we went to the mall to get last minute things and let's say the mall is nicer than Park Meadows, or any mall that you think is nice.....I was impressed!
The rest of the week we will be studying more about African Culture and planning next week. Next week we will be visiting sick people in the morning time and running a kids day camp in the afternoons! Tomorrow we are going to Lion's Park, a Game Reserve, to take lots of pictures!...Sorry I don't have pictures at the moment....not enough time at the moment!!!! My teammates need the computer too!
Love you all, thanks for your prayers! Things are going well! Also, we are having limited Internet access, so I may not get to post another comment until next week some time! Hope you are all doing well!
blessings,
Kristin
