As may be obvious from our location we have arrived back home in Canada (well Sarah and I have, Jeff is spending a few weeks in Europe). As I promised everyone has returned alive and well. After 22 fun filled hours and 4 airports (why did we have to fly to Montreal first?) we are happy to be home. My "back to reality" moment came quickly upon our return when I ordered a pint at a pub in the Montreal Airport and the bill was $9.31. Only the day before we were paying about the equivalent of $1.25 for a 500 mL bottle of Tusker Lager in Kenya. At least the beer (and coffee) is better here. Overall an excellent experience and we are all looking foreword to boring our friends and families for the next few months with stories and pictures from East Africa. Nice to be home.
