Hello from London

Hello from London's Heathrow Airport...

We are now getting ready to board for our overnight flight to Lusaka, Zambia...after finishing the first overnight leg from Chicago to London...

We took the train from the airport into downtown London today and saw Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey, London Eye, Big Ben...and the queen en route in a carriage back from an address at parliament...and ate lunch outside in the London fog and mist on the steps of the National Art Gallery...

It gave us a chance to stretch our legs on a long walk and see some of the most famous sites in the world...even took pictures in front of the Summer Olympics countdown monument...69 days today!

We are pretty tired...and pretty hopeful to get some sleep tonight...we will have a 5-6 hour ride north to Ndola and our home for the next week after we get off the plane in beautiful Zambia tomorrow!

Everyone is doing well...and we are anxious to meet our new African friends tomorrow!

We will send an update from Zambia soon...miss you all...thanks for your prayers...

FOR THE ZAMBIA TEAM,

Chip
