So we made it on the first leg of the flight. We are now in Amsterdam waiting on our next flight to Nairobi. Since we had a few hours till our connecting flight, we decided that we should try some Dutch food. There's a little cafe at the airport. One of the ladies at the airport that was helping us earlier recommended that we try some thing called kroketten. It's apparently a Dutch specialty. Even McDonald's here has what you call a "McKroketten" Well, Kristina was brave enough to order the real thing at Cafe Amsterdam (the menu described it as ragout of beef with a crispy jacket.) The way I would describe kroketten is deep fried gravy. It was definitely not what we had expected. I wasn't so brave, I stuck with what I knew and ordered a shnitzel. We had a wonderful time just talking and getting to know each team member better. It's so amazing to see how God has been working in each one of our lives.
We got a few more hours to rest up before we fly out to Nairobi tonight. Things are going smoothly so far. Praise be to God.
Keep praying for us,
Gaan
