Yayyyyy!!!!

We're here!  We've dived into the adventure here, so we haven't gotten to a internet café before now. Our flight in London was delayed 2 hours because of a storm, so we arrived in Johannesburg 20 minutes before our next flight.. which means we missed it. So, we had to wait 5 hours for the next flight. Unfortunatly, we didn't have number to call Tina in Botswana who was waiting for us at the airport at 10 am.   Our new flight only left at 2:15 (and there were delays on that one too) so when we finally got to the Gabarone airport, no one was waiting for us.. Tina had no idea when we would come.   We had met a Motswana lady in line in Jo'berg, as she was in the same situation as us, and in the airport in Gabarone, she offered us a ride to Tina's place. So, we got in her car, and about to head out of the parking lot when we saw Tina!   She was dropping off a friend who was flying out. She had prayed for good timing, and it couldn't have been better!

 

So Wednesday we went with Tina to a village and hour or so out of the city to see a friend of hers.  Tina's church has agreed to   provide the money for this woman to build herself a house, so we went to tell her the good news.  We arrived at this woman's brother's house, and they were preparing for other brother's wedding next week, so the women were putting a new coat of mud on the round house, and all the family was around to see that the work was coming a long well.

 

We were there over lunchtime, so they included us in the meal, which was a great cultural experience. 

 

Today we are looking around the main mall, and my time is about up on the computer.
