We made it!

Well we made it! After an hour delay, a six hour flight from Gatwick to Dubai (incredible airport) then a just under five hour flight from Dubai to Dar es Salaam. We then survived passport control and just about survived baggage reclaim, but it wasn't long before we met Glory (our go to woman over here). After a short minibus drive through Dar everyone finally got to have a look and start preparing themselves for the journey! We spent the first night in the YWCA where we got ourselves together, then went out for dinner and had an early night.

When we woke up we wandered down to breakfast which consisted of two slices of bread, a slice of watermelon and a boiled egg! After breakfast we headed to go and get our coach to Morogoro which took three hours and was quite cramped and hot, but we got there and that's what we wanted! As soon as we arrived we realised what a beautiful place it is, as we were completely surrounded by mountains. After being here a little while we have some local GirlGuiding visitors including the region commissioner. This made us all really excited for the trainings coming up at the weekend. Afterwards we went for a walk around the local area and then went for dinner.

Tomorrow (8th August) we're preparing for trainings which start tomorrow by getting our plans and resources together.
