Welcome to our new home.....



Arriving in South Africa - after 42 hours of flight and layovers two  tired missionaries arrived - at last - in Durban South Africa.
It was a welcome sight to see our mission President and his wife waiting for us!  It was an instant friendship! Three of our suitcases were lost but we were here! They took us to meet everyone in the mission office for training. Finally to our B&B and some sleep!  We spent the night and the next day training and locating our missing suitcases. 
The following morning we were given  keys to our car and our home and a cell then - we were off for our new adventure to Richards Bay - 2 hours north of Durban - trying to learn how to drive on the left side of the road in a new country!!! Our MIssionareis from RIchards Bay were starting to call us to see when we were going to be home - we realized we now had 10 new sons waiting for us to come home!   
It is a blessing for the technology of a GPS - it led us to our new home - it directed us to the right street but we had no idea which house - all the homes have big walls and gates so we were pushing our key button to see which gate opened.  Finally a gate opened and we had arrived to Our New Home!
