Leaving Paris for Bangui


Our four guys met up with Jim Hocking, founder of Water For Good, in Atlanta and flew to Paris. This morning they left Paris for Bangui. LOL! They now have 24 pieces of luggage between the 5 of them.

Update: While it took me all day for some reason to be able to get these pictures on this blog, the guys flew all the way to Bangui.  They have arrived with ALL 24 suitcases and ALL 5 guys! Marcellin, Farel, Nicaise and Andre were all there at the airport to greet them  Tim said they greeted him with a head bump which is a pretty special greeting among friends.  I think they are happy to see him and the team!  I sent the usual gift to Andre, the cook: bacon! Not something he gets very often or at all.  Not everyone gets to have meat on thier plates.  I'm so happy that he and his family will have a little for now.

I guess tomorrow they will stay around Bangui instead of jumping into trucks for a 15 hour drive.  They will make that drive to Beberati on Thursday.
