Bonjour! Happy Friday!
So we started our journey thursday at 5 am . The airport was crazy busy, we had luggage scanning issues, and a few members almost got detained but good news we made the plane. We had a lay over in Newark that was extended when we all loaded on the plane and a crazy thunderstorm started that caused us to sit there for 4 hours before taking off. We made it to the airport in Brussels with about 20 minutes to make our next flight. We caught a bus to our terminal and ran the rest of the way and we made it to the gate and we could see our plane but they said it was just about to take off and our luggage would not make it for a few days so we couldn't get on the plane. So we went all the way back to the airline desk and they booked us a complimentary hotel room and that's where I am right now. The next flight to Burundi leaves Sunday morning so we are going to take advantage of our layover and train to Paris tomorrow. It's been an adventure full of things that almost went wrong but on the end nothing has turned out bad! I am excited for the blessing of a day in Europe! More countries I can cross off my must visit list. :)
