Found: American's Luggage!

Good news! ...thought i haven't said the bad news yet.

We had a good day today in Dar traveling around...to the US Embassy because one of the monks needed to get his visa renewed for next year, and we took the opportunity to chat with the consulate and let them know that we had lost our luggage. (didn't want to worry you by telling you that it was lost before we found it) They called the airline and this afternoon we got a call letting us know that the luggage had arrived!

I just got back from the airport about 1 hour ago with everything that we brought. It is good news. We were making the best out of the last two days, but it added a little stress as one could imagine.

We found out today that we will be staying in Dar es Salaam until Sunday or Monday of next week. I guess Hanga has a full house...but they will have our rooms ready by Sunday or Monday. We will just have to see some more of Dar tomorrow. we are making the best of it.

missing home, but knowing that this is continuing to be a good experience.

more to come tomorrow.
