Stuck in the Airport

Day One update...

We've been in the London airport for HOURS! We got in this morning around 12noon London time and we'll be here until 7pm tonight when our flight leaves for Johannesburg. We didn't get to go out see London because it's rainy and cold and we wanted to be sure that our luggage was being forwarded to Johannesburg. Unfortunately, by the time someone arrived at the South African Airlines counter to check us in and verify that our luggage was under control, it was too late to go out and see the city. We're bummed, but we're making the best of the airport.

Day 2 so far...

We just got to The Pines an hour or so ago. Everyone is busy eating lunch, taking showers, and playing with kids. We're going to have orientation in an hour or so. We'll write more later tonight, but just wanted to let everyone know that we survived the 11 hour flight from London to Johannesburg and we made it to The Pines. We love you all and miss you.
