Arrival

On Tuesday, after having traveled for 19 hours, we finally landed in Tanzania, at Kilimanjaro International Airport. We were all very relieved that we had finally made it, but our travel troubles weren't yet all over. It turns out that of the 20 pieces of luggage our team had checked, 17 pieces hadn't yet arrived at the airport. Jodie and Ke talked to the luggage office, and they told us the luggage would be coming on the next flight and that we should come back the next day.

We were met by Father Munishi, who picked us up in a big van and took us to the Spiritan House in Arusha, where we would be staying for the next couple of days.

We were very excited to see our rooms and meet the people there. Jodie and Ke had stayed there previously, so they already knew many of the people around there. They had prepared for us a snack of bread and jam.

Afterwards, we walked into town and got a few things we needed, such as Tanzanian SIM cards for our phones and Tanzanian shillings from the ATMs.
