Arrived!

We made it here right on time and except for a medical emergency on the plane (not us), everything went smoothly.  We have spent the afternoon with one of the program staff, his relatives, village mates, business associates, ......you get the drift.  It is so different here and very hard to truly understand what is happening.  Our first clue about the way "rules" do not apply here--the airport where they just pushed us by customs because the line was long.  We have taken two taxis so far which have cost us either about 2 dollars (or maybe 50?).  It is the usual overseas taxi experience, only warmer.  Thanks for reading our blog.  We are fine, and excited.  Denise & Julie
