We're finally here!!


WE MADE IT! After a small flight delay in Washington D.C set us back a little bit, we made it to Bujumbura, Burundi at about 3:00pm Burundi time (about 8:00am Cincinnati time). We are still adjusting to the time changes, but slept most of the 28 hour flight. We had a delicious dinner provided by Tom and Jana, and enjoyed a leisurely swim. Tomorrow we are sight seeing, and Monday we are meeting with Nurses without Borders and a representative from the Clinton Foundation to discuss possible opportunities for next years trip. The internet is super slow, so we'll try to post some more pictures tomorrow

Thanks for all of the support

Support the MS Society

Today we went to Camp Kern in Oregonia, Ohio to volunteer at the MS 150 Bike Ride. Matt Chalk (Jayne and Liz's cousin) participated in the bike ride and we went to cheer him on and to provide the other riders with a delicious lunch after the race. Below is the link to the MS Society website. http://www.nationalmssociety.org/index.aspx
