Well, we're off!
Last night we left Pearson Airport in Toronto. There was no problem getting any of the luggage checked and we are all doing fine today.
The flight last night felt a little long as we didn't really have a chance to get up and stretch, however I think that all of us are more tired than wired at this point and won't have as much trouble settling down for some much needed rest on tonight's flight.
We spent the afternoon taking the underground to Westminster. We walked through Green Park and over to Buckingham Palace. I'm surprised that Liz didn't show up to wish us a Happy Canada Day given that she was home and all, but I suppose she may have been busy...
After seeing Buckingham Palace (I did the tourist thing and took a ton of pictures...from every angle)we walked down to Picadilly Square, had a bite to eat and then took the tube back during rush hour (gave us a chance to chat with some people).
Things are going well so far. The team is great and we are all looking forward to arriving in Uganda in the morning.
Love to you all.

Hi, Shannon,
How are you doing over there? I can imagine you there at Bulrushes and walking the crowded and noisy streets....it's like I'm there again myself. Been praying for you.
Would you do me a favor? Would you mind asking Linda Duncalfe who works at Watoto main office to email me? My computer dropped all my emails and addresses and I would like to connect with her and respond to an email she sent me before I lost everything. Thank you!
Take care and praying for you.
Judy
