Our Journey Thus Far: March 4th

Brussels, Belgium was a pretty dreary place, or at least from what we saw of it.  The weather was kind of foggy and cold.  Our flight for Yaounde, Cameroon was scheduled to leave at 10:50 am, But we boarded the plane and sat there for several hours.  We could not take off they said because there was a problem, it wasn’t till almost 3:00pm that they told us we would be switching planes.  The plane that we originally were on was having a major computer malfunction.  It is a miracle that they discovered the problem before we took off or we would have been stuck in the air with no way to land.  We got off and had to go back through security and then our flight was scheduled to leave at 5:00pm.  We didn’t board our next plane till after 6:00, and didn’t leave till after 7:00pm.  The plane was to make two stops the one was farther South than Yaounde, and for some reason we stopped there before coming to Yaounde.  We arrived here around 2:30 in the morning.  It was definitely a moment of rejoicing after our long ride here!  But we thank God that we remained safe and in his good hands.   When we arrived in Cameroon there were a lolt of people waiting for us.  Everyone was so welcoming and wide awake at so early in the morning!  The weather was amazing and so warm!
