Flight and first night in Kenya

Our arrival to the Tom Bradley terminal with 16 travelers and twice as many pieces of luggage could have caused alot of frustration but it went very smoothly! The team breezed thru and we boardedthe airplane for the very long first leg of our trip...15 hrs to Dubai. Then a quick walk to our next flight of 5 hrs to Nairobi. By the time we got thru customs and picked up our bags at 7pm Kenya time, we were ready for a good nights sleep. After breakfast the next morning we headed back to the airport for our final flight to Kitale. As we weaved our way thru the the morning rush hour traffic, the familiar sights and the smell of the cooking fires brought back memories of previous trips. Most of our team has not been to Kenya and it was exciting to see the country from their perspective. Our host for the week has provided a very comfortable place for us and we are looking forward to tomorrow when we will go shopping in Kitale for the medical supplies and other needs so that we can start preparing for the medical clinic that will be on Wednesday.
