Shew!

What a journey?! We left Chicago at 2:15 and arrived in Frankfurt, Germany at 5:30am. We were there four hours and then left again for Sudan. We waited on the plane in Sudan for close to an hour while some people disembarked. One person got off by mistake and the Sudan custom officials wouldn't let him get back on the plane. We left without him. We then finished our flight to Addis Ababa, stood in a long line to get visas, stood in another long line to go through customs and then proceeded to baggage claim where all three of our checked bags were waiting for us! Praise God!
We met a fellow Frankfort, Kentucky person on the flight to Germany. He was a flight attendant and lives in downtown Frankfort. Go figure!
It's 10:22pm here and I feel like I've been traveling for two days. Lol.
Tomorrow morning we'll meet Melaku and get to spend a few hours with him.
Thanks for going on this journey with us. Note to self or anyone else: Don't get off the plane in Sudan. Just saying.
