Finally Made It

Finally got to Kenya. We landed at the perfect time: sunset. It was gorgeous to start landing and see the sun shining through onto the trees. We also had the best airplane meal I have ever had. Thank you swiss air international! Oh my goodness it was good enough to make you want to move to Switzerland for the airline food! Anyway after we landed we had a smooth transition getting our visas but then we got to customs and got to have our first memorable moment. The customs agents were not going to let us through and kept telling is that we ha to pay for the shoes we brought (apparently they have a formula for that, whatever that means). After several minutes of back and forth and prayer the customs agent just changed his mind. Literally he said ok well I guess you can go now. And that was that. It was so amazing how in just a moment he changed his mind and let us through!
