Last Day

8-6-13

After breakfast, we got our passports back from ARM, and squeaked in a tiny bit of shopping. We got food to go from the Java Café again and headed to the airport in Entebbe, which is an hour drive in good traffic. It's a very small airport with a duty free store, a craft store, one café, and one coffee shop.

It was about 4 hours to Dubai. Because of the closure of all Middle Eastern US Embassies, half the group opted to stay the night at the airport, but the rest went to the hotel. It was the Arabian Park Hotel this time, so we got to see slightly more of the city than on the way there. We got about 5 hours of sleep before we went back to the airport. Then another 13 hours to Seattle, 4 hour layover, then 1 hour to Portland. We figure the hotel sleepers were awake for 26 hours before we go to our homes. Needless to say we were all exhausted and satisfied with the whole trip.

PS. We heard back from Martin at ARM and they are going to Board Scovia at Grace Christian School, in Kachungwa, starting in Sept. Praise God for them helping her get out of her aunts home! So happy about this.
