Getting There.. sorta

We are finally there. Africa that is. After nearly 18 hours on planes today we had a little trouble at our last stop and are stuck in Niger. But we are in a great hotel that has wireless and an awesome buffet with Air France footing the bill. I just had the best mango that I have ever eaten and the sauce that is apparently a staple is great with just a little kick to it. We have about an hour flight left to Burkina Faso, but thought that everyone would like to know that we are fine even though we're not in Ouagadougou just yet.

Signing off,

Tim and Becky

  2. What? No pictures of the penguin flying over the ocean? By this time, I had pictures of my penguin in the webbing of a C-130 as we flew into the hot zone and us mounted on a striker on the ground. Anyway, hope you two are having fun and I'm glad that two made the jump across the pond safely.
