We have arrived Saturday night it is about 11:25 p.m.

Khartoum from the air.

We have arrived in Addis and got all checked in to the hotel here and the first person we saw in the lobby of the hotel was smiling Anna who had been in Sudan the previous week. She landed just before we did so luckily she already had her shower and cleaned up, the first one in a week, thank you Lord, so we got checked in and then got a quick meal in the restaurant. Oh I forgot to mention that Diane did not get her bag so she will be without, at least her stuff until the next flight comes in Sunday morning from Paris, why Paris I do not know. Any way she is very tired and already in bed which is where I should be. So this will be short. We have a busy day

tomorrow starting with church, which I am sure will re-energize all of us.

Thanks for your prayers for getting us over here and now looking forward to a great week as well. Oh I forgot to mention that we made a scheduled stop in Sudan on the way over that our ticket did not spell out but it worked out ok we just sat on the plane for about an hour until some of the folks got off and we took on more fuel. See photo above.

More tomorrow.
