I got up at 6:00am when they blew the horn, got dressed, and did my morning devotion. Then we all met upstairs in the Upper Room for one last morning worship and speaker. We went downstairs for breakfast and I had eggs. Then we had to pack all of our stuff up and bring everything outside so some guys could load it up on the cattle trucks. We had a lot of free time so we kind of just hangout and talked and played cards. Liz and I went on a walk and these girls from one of the villages came up to us and we talked to them for a little. Then they asked us if we were getting ready to leave and if we had any shoes we didn't want because they really needed some. Liz and I went to our stuff and pulled out some shoes to give to the girls. They were very thankful. Eventually it came time for us to leave, but first we all circled up and held hands and prayed. Then we got on buses and headed to the airport. We checked our bags in and made it through security. We said our goodbyes to the people who weren't on our flight and then boarded our airplane. Luckily I got to sit with the new friends I made and we had a lot of fun the whole flight to Atlanta. It made the three and a half hour flight go by very fast. We made it to Atlanta and had to go through customs, get our bags, and go through security again. We got some food and hung out in one of the terminals where most of the people were leaving from because they were all flying into Pittsburgh. Me and two of my friends were flying into Philadelphia so we had to leave from a different terminal. We said our goodbyes and boarded our plane to Philly. Finally we landed and we met my dad at the baggage claim. We got our bags, drove to Lancaster to drop my friend off, and then drove home. We got to my house around 2:00am Sunday morning.
