Day One in Cape Town

Greetings from Cape Town! As I (Julianna) write to you, I’m sitting in the living room at All Nations’ main property, called the Africa House. This is where we’ll be staying the next several months. Our room has the most wonderful natural light. We slept with the windows open because there’s no air conditioning, but it was quite nice.
We arrived in Cape Town late last night after about 30 hours of airport travel. The flights weren’t bad, but neither Brandon nor I got much sleep. We’re still not caught up — once we woke up this morning at 8:30 a.m., we couldn’t go back to sleep because of nervous excitement (“We’re finally here in Africa!”). Please pray that we get our rest and get over jet lag quickly! It’s eight hours ahead (of central standard time) here. Strange that as I write here, where it’s about 11 a.m., the clock on my computer reads 3 a.m.
We’re just meeting our fellow CPXers today and unpacking and getting things we need today. CPX starts Monday morning.
