After a long bus ride to LAX, we checked our bags and boarded. 5 hours later, we landed in D.C and I was honestly shocked to find out this was the shortest flight. After we got off, we grabbed food and sprinted to our next flight. The next 7 hours wasn't too bad because the plane wasn't full, so we had extra seats to sleep on. Right when I was about to fall asleep for the first time since 2:45 am, Mr. Gray woke me up to take my malaria pill, so I didn't sleep at all. Once we got off, we went to the bathroom and brushed our teeth and washed our faces as it was now Saturday morning. The waffles in the Brussels airport were fabulous. After a 3 hour layover, we boarded our last plane full of exhaustion and excitement. I personally fell asleep for the first time in 22 hours before we even took off. Once we landed, we went through customs, grabbed our bags, and met Steve, Muky, and Gabi Gonzales. We piled the luggage on top of the vans and drove to our first hotel. We had potatoes, chicken, rice, and chapati for dinner. The chapati is actually so good. After 30 hours of travel, we are finally here and beyond excited to start our journey through Uganda!!
