Half Way There...

We are spending a few hours at London Heathrow Airport waiting for our last leg to Nairobi. We got off to a very slow start at DFW. Our 5:15 flight to Atlanta didn't leave until 7:50ish. It had something to do with pilots not wanting to fly in severe weather...blah, blah, blah. That put us VERY late getting into Alanta, so we gracefully ran from one end of the airport to the other, arriving at our gate at exactly the same time that the clerk was trying to give our seats away to those on standby. Luckily, we convinced her that we needed to be on the plane. Eight hours later, we find ourselves here in London. Emily was fortunate enough to watch the sunrise above the clouds over the Atlantic ocean this morning. She said it was amazing. Next stop...Nairobi. We hope our luggage makes it!
