Before we got here, though, we made a stop in a new, faraway land. We have dear friends who are staying in the United Arab Emirates. What a treat it was to see them!
The next morning, we were on a plane to Uganda. This was special for us, because every other time we've flown to Uganda has been in the dark, but this flight was in the daytime! We had a seat near the back of the plane, which gave us clear shots of the geography below as we made our way over the Arabian Peninsula, across the water to Djibouti, then over Ethiopia and Northern Kenya, and finally into Uganda.
We have prepared a slideshow to show the vast changes in topography. (For those receiving this post by email, you may need to visit the website to view this...it's worth it! Take a look!)
We have more to share about our time in Canada, but it will need to wait until we do the next couple posts about happenings here.
