We've Arrived Safely! by Jacob, Maykayla and Hallie!

Well first off we made it safe and sound! We arrived at MSP Airport and wanted to get food right away. Of course we chose the farthest food venue from our gate but we still made it in time:) Our first flight was 8 hours and was very smooth Hallie and I were lucky enough to sit next to each other on both flights. Delta overwhelmed us with food constantly which made it hard for us to sleep. But it was very good food and we were never hungry. Mr. McMorrow said he has never had this open of a flight, this allowed us to sleep on the floor and move around. We landed in Amsterdam around 6 A.M their time and we had a 4 hour layover. We all took our malorone together which was an obstacle for Rachel who brought her own spoons to crush the pills. We have never seen an airport as busy as this one was at 7 A.M in the morning. Our 4 hour layer over consisted of adventuring for food, sleeping on the freezing floor, people watching (Hallie’s favorite), hair braiding and cleaning up

Final Blog by… Devon, Maddie B, Katelyn, Abbey, and Megan Today’s the day we leave the place that has quickly felt like home. The 2018 Tanzania Group is one of a kind and we know that we will never forget the memories that were made. Our theme, “Live Boldly” could not have fit more perfectly, it truly showed throughout every single person. We saw it in the ways that each person wasn’t afraid to try new things and really embrace the atmosphere and culture in Tanzania. There were many highlights of this trip. We started off with an adventure to the Marangu Falls where we were able to share our first laughs watching everyone struggle to get up and down the slippery “stairs”. A day at the falls was a great way to kick off our amazing adventure. We were all in awe of the beauty that God has created here in Africa. Throughout the two weeks we tested our strengths at the fields with the Mamas that we grew very close to. Farming with them helped us fully understand t

Marangu Falls! By Maddie Bauerly, Noah Amundson, JJ Pfieffer

Today we woke up at about 7 am and ate breakfast at 7:30. We had eggs, poached or fried, watermelon, crepes that we put nutella on and toast with local peanut butter and honey. Overall, breakfast was very good and everyone enjoyed it. After breakfast we packed up backpacks and stuff for our expedition to the falls. The ride there was fascinating and we got to open up windows so we could wave and greet people on the streets. We were excited to wave to them because we always got a wave or a greeting back. The landscape here is so cool and there were mountains and fields all around. Everyone enjoyed just watching as we rode the dala dala bus. Our first stop was the entrance to the hiking path to Mount Kilimanjaro. We got a short tour and took group pictures by the signs at the Mountain. Then, we drove a little ways back down the mountain to where we would enter the caves. We got a history lesson on how the Chaga dug the caves and about their culture. The cave was very
