We have now been in Dar for just over a week now. We travelled down on Friday along with a pickup truck with our beds, dinning room table, chairs and lounge seats. The rest of our things arrived on Saturday after the truck had a hard journey taking some 27 hours to come. The truck had a puncture and then after replacing the wheel they had a second puncture so not having another spare they had to get repairs which were not possible where the truck was. So the wheels had to go back to Dodoma for repair, after twelve hours they were able to start again. They hoped to reach Morogoro for the night but had another puncture so arrived in Morogoro at 3am had an hours sleep and then continued arriving at our place at about 8.30am.
We are now in the house but there is plenty of unpacking still to do.
We have been to the school and managed to get John-Luke's uniform for next week and Paul has been in the Dar office since Tuesday and having 'fun' in the traffic. The trip into the office this week (20km) but it took between 40 minutes to 1.5 hours to do the trip. Edith has been busy sorting the house out.
Thanks for your prayers and support through this busy period.
God Bless and love form us all.
Paul, Edith, John-Luke & Gabriella
