BONGOYO ISLAND!!!

FRIENDS, FAMILY, FOES (OKAY, NOT REALLY FOES)...but HELLO!!!  I'm greeting you all, though it will be brief.  My friend Hailey and I are waiting in Dar es Salaam to catch a boat to head to a PRIVATE beach on Bongoyo Island.  God has blessed us with this opportunity before heading home.  I'm in awe already of the beauty of the Indian ocean.  WOW!  I have to tell you something...I took a shower last night and this morning!  with running, hot water!!  Yes, i know.  It's grrrreeeeeat!   Okay, I'm starting my journey home tomorrow...be praying for weather because I hear airports have been closed or planes delayed.  I leave tomorrow morning (Tuesday) from Dar...go to London for an overnight layover...22nd leave London around 11 ish....then to Chicago, Portland....and....SPOKANE on the evening of the 23rd (Please Jesus, please!!!!!!  WOOOO WHOOOO!!!!
As we were driving here to "Slipway"...a Christmas song came on the radio..."I'm dreaming of a white Christmas."  It was so comical because we are looking at a very blue Indian ocean with palm trees and sand and there is nothing "WHITE"  nor "CHRISTMASY" about this.  Anyway, just a funny side note.
LOVE YOU ALL SO VERY VERY MUCH!   I Can't wait to catch up with you all.  Coffe date anyone?  Yes, please.  Or maybe an Ice water date?  Oh how I miss cold things!
Okay, talk to you soon.
