JFK to JoBurg to Lilongwe

Jeff and I arrived safely in Lilongwe this afternoon. We were greeted with a surprisingly warm welcome at the Lilongwe airport. The flight from JFK to Jo-burg was extremely smooth and it went by very fast. After we landed in Jo-burg,  we had a quick lunch and almost immediately boarded our two hours flight to Lilongwe, Malawi. Much to our surprise, we were greeted with a flock of screaming Americans there to support some peace-crops arrive-es.  Our driver met us promptly after we made it thru the sworn of supports, and we jumped in his truck and headed off on our 45km drive to Namitete. The dormitory for visiting health-care providers is very nice. There is a Canadian couple who has been here for 2 weeks and is staying for another 4. There is a young German girl who is a 4th year med student who just arrived yesterday...

Were getting up bright and early for morning report at 7am...... tired for now...
