We have made it!

7 suitcases, 24 hours of traveling, and 2 very jet lagged people later...
We have arrived!

However, we are not going to spill everything just yet.

We promise to update this more thoroughly once we get internet. Currently I (Shannon) am standing at our windowsill, stealing internet from some WiFi connection outside... Due to uncomfortable arrangements, I am afraid our first blog will be more of an excuse to keep you waiting...if anyone actually reads this =)

But to be brief, we are having a lovely time. It is everything we thought it would be and some. The people, food, service, etc., are fantastic! We have settled in well to our little community. Our first day of induction was today, and the school is unbelievable. The resources are unlimited; the staff is cohesive and friendly; and everything is working out well...

The only glitch--internet. September 1 marks the first day of Ramadan. It is the holy month in which all Muslims fast, and the work day becomes almost obsolete. We will still be in school, but our schedule is much shorter--we finish every day by 1:00.

Well I could keep typing for hours, but my hands are aching from this angle, but we promise to post pictures soon and write all about this!

Love to you all!
