The Beach... Africa » Sierra Leone » Freetown
Ok...what a night! Couldn't sleep...again with the dogs, the unbelievable down pour of rain and the random turning on of all the house lights at 4am! AWESOME! Went to church this morning...it was incredible...everyone in the church (30ish people) welcomed us and offered a warm hand shake. Of course the music was incredible and all they had was a half working guitar. I cannot tell you how hot it was...I have NEVER been so hot in my entire life!

I have arrived! Africa » Sierra Leone » Freetown
Hello All! I'm going to keep this short because I have zero energy, but I did want to say that I'm here safe and sound! The journey here went so smoothly and I feel so blessed. When we flew over the coast line of Freetown, I could hardly breath....it is so surreal to be here! There was someone to help us navigate through the crazy airport and organise tickets for the helicopter as well! We flew over the city from the airport in an old Russian helicopter with a very Russian looking/sounding man with 16 others. The city was almost completely [View Full Entry]
