Friends

All is well…

Delta lost one bag  (Kennedi’s), but found it… it  arrives tomorrow; My bag was left at the desk where we waited to confirm that Keenedi’s bag was still in DC (and security would not let me back in to get it…but they found it); apparently a double room in SA means one bed and they booked 7 of those (but all is fine now)… And airplane food is horrible, so we are heading downstairs to eat.

Thank you all. The group is coming together to make sure that our friend without bags has something to wear (bag will reach us on our hike tomorrow)… Debario and I are amazed at how slowly teenagers move, but we are safe and tried and awake.

I will send you a note tomorrow after the museum. They will have their phones only for tonight (for last minute check ins) , but we will start collecting them tomorrow.

With gratitude

“When those who have the power to name and to socially construct reality choose not to see you or hear you, whether you are dark-skinned, old disabled, female or speak with a different accent or dialect than theirs…when someone describes the world and you are not in it, there is a moment of psychic disequilibrium, as if you looked into a mirror and saw nothing.” - Adrienne Ric
