Upon arrival Cheryl gave us the instructions for \u201cwhen not IF\u201d the electricity fails and how to switch to the generator. We were given instructions about the internet, mosquito netting and all other operational items. The delicious evening meal was prepared and a large group gathered to share the meal and get to know one another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" height=\"616\" width=\"640\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kachelman.com\/ukraine\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/IMG_2503-1.jpg?resize=640%2C616&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A note from Gif\u2026When Jesus sent the twelve apostles out in Matthew 10 he said, \u201cDo not acquire gold, or silver, or copper for your money belts, or a bag for your journey, or even two coats, or sandals, or a staff.\u201d Though we did not intend to follow this command ourselves, our airline took decided to take matters into their own hands and leave mine and Simba\u2019s bags in Amsterdam. Fortunately, I had 16 cups of coffee over 4 different flights and I\u2019m on my second one this morning so today\u2019s going to be a great day! Chimala is beautiful and we are ready to get out and see all there is to see here as the week progresses.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I\u2019ll put some photos below of those here and add more in the next report!
