a few pictures from our travels

We've just finished our first night at Macha and, after a yummy breakfast!   Everyone seems to have slept well for the most part and all are excited to get to know our new home for the next few weeks!

Here are a few photos from our travels thus far:

Our layover in London led us to Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey, and Big Ben!  Here Dr. Mylin takes a picture of Jennie, Tiara and Melina in front of the palace!

Chelsea tries a local favorite, fish and chips for lunch!

After arriving in Livingstone and settling in at Jolly Boys, the hostel we stayed in, we ventured into town to find our dinner plance, Fez!

The five hour journey to Macha begins in our snug little bus!

After arriving safe and sound in Macha, we were treated to our first Zambian dinner!

This morning we'll venture into Macha, visit the marketplace, the hospital, and get to know some of our neighbors.  We'll have the afternoon to rest and will spend this evening doing some more cultural orientation for our stay in Macha.  Spirits remain high, and we're all looking forward to spending our first day without getting on a bus or in a plane!
