We're HERE!!!!



30 Hours later, 3 plane rides, 4 security checks where you have to take off your shoes and pull out all liquids in 3 oz bottles, and 2 lost carry-ons, we are finally in Bishkek. All of our luggage, that we origianally checked, made it in one piece and with all items still there. We were picked up at the airport by our contacts and stopped at this sign to make our arrival official.


This is a picture of our first official meal. Apple, bannana, goldfish, bread, cheese, butter, andx sausage. We ate at about 7am Bishkek time.
