Safe in Entebbe

Hi again everyone!
We are safe and sound in Entebbe. Because of the rioting that occured in Kampala yesterday, they changed our plan to stay in Entebbe tonight instead of going into Jinja tonight. We are planning to leave here at 5:30 a.m. and head for the last leg of the trip! Al and kids...I can't get my email to open or facebook. Seriously wish I had arranged for an international phone before I left. So hope you're checking my blog! Flight was long, but good. It really wasn't bad!

Pray for our safety and flexibility, as our plans have changed multiple times. We checked into our hotel here and were greeted by two geckos and a tree frog and a roach in our shower. Yay!! :-)

Much love to you all!! Will write more tomorrow...I hope!!
love,
Renee

  9. mommy, i miss you so much!! i wish so badly that i could talk to you... but i know that you are having an incredible experience, and I am so excited for all that you are going to witness and encounter on this journey.

    I hate more than anything that i missed your call on the plane-- stupid classes. : )
    but as we talked about before, God is going to do amazing things, and open your mind, heart, and eyes to things you never ever expected... i'm sure you're already experiencing that. I can't wait to see your beautiful pictures. i love you so much and miss you just the same!!!! i'm praying for you, and everyone else! keep safe, mom.

  18. Good morning (here) sister! Happy to hear from you. Praying for you all. Wish you could be two places at once, selfishly wishing you were here to be at Kat's shower today. Her sister had her baby this morning =). All is well at the home front. Give the kids some love for me =)
    Love and miss you,
    Rhonda Kaye
