Well, I have been here for about a week now, and we have so busy I haven't been able to get internet, let alone make a post on my blog. I don't even know where to start, I have experienced so much in such a little time. I guess the travel to Malawi itself is a good place to start!
I left on Wednesday night and arrived in Lilongwe on Friday morning. It was a long haul, but we managed to have some fun on the way. We lucked out and got to spend a little more than half a day in Amsterdam, which was a surprise to me. I didn't realize we would actually get to explore the city until the day I left. It had been 8 years since I was last in Amsterdam, and it was as fantastic as I remembered it. The architecture, the cobblestone roads, the quaint little restaurants, the abundance of bicycles and of course the coffeeshops.
We spent much of the day walking around just looking at all the nice features the city has to offer, but we ate a small pizzeria which had delicious spicy pepperoni pizza, and we visited a lovely coffeeshop called "The Bulldog". That day trip definitely took some energy out of me, so I managed to get a little sleep on the plane ride from Amsterdam to Nairobi, Kenya.
The whole journey started in Toronto, had a stopover in Amsterdam, continued to Nairobi, Kenya and finally to Lilongwe, Malawi.
