Catching up

Now that we're back home with consistent internet service, it's finally time to give an update on our Kenya trip. We arrived back at Philadelphia airport around 3:15 on Saturday afternoon, after being up for nearly 42 hours including 17 hours of flights. It was an uneventful trip (no airport fire this year!) with all the luggage arriving with us as desired! We look forward to doing it again next year!
