Just a very short post to let you know that we are home again. We arrived home at 11 AM. We found things in good shape (thanks Chris!) and our cats were quite pleased as well. In the next day I’ll put out some final thoughts and pictures from our trip. But for now, with our get lagged bodies craving sleep, we’re going to get a good nights rest and get back to a final trip post tomorrow.
Thanks all for your thoughts, prayers and encouragements during our travels and work in Tanzania. We could not have done it without you and the blessings and presence of God in all that we did and accomplished.

You’ll never guess what happened before we left Dar Es Salaam today. It was an answer to our prayers. Alnoor, a good friend of ours in Dar, who used to be our main computer equipment supplier in Dar closed his business. We did not know that, so we had been trying to get in touch with him for several months. But when his E-mail, his cell phone and his store phone number did not work, we knew something was up, and we were a little worried for him. When we arrived in Dar two weeks ago, I went to his previous store location and confirmed that it was closed. I inquired with others around that location, but no one knew what happened. On our way back to Dar yesterday, I kept thinking about him wondering if things were OK with him and his family and just offered a prayer for them.
Here we are again at Dubai International Airport. It’s just barely June 4th (12:30 AM) so you all are getting ready to leave work or something like that. We’ll be leaving at 2:50 AM for the long flight home. Definitely going to have some jet lag after this one. I can get cat naps in, but I rarely sleep very long on an airplane. At this point, I’m looking forward to getting back to our home and getting a good rest in our own bed. Sleep is very under rated.
We’ll post some more when we get home to close out our trip and add some other pictures to remember our experience by. Thanks to everyone who have been keeping up with us during trip. We’ll have lots to share with you when we get back.
