So we arrived. Flights went really well - Daniel
& Ilanay sang on the plane ("Are we ready to go" song that goes on forever and ends with "I think we're gonna stay home!), played games and watched cartoons and were just so good.
We managed to retrieve all 8 cases, and, along with 4 pieces of hand luggage, the 4 of us got on the boat to cross to Freetown. Daniel is a bad traveller at the best of times, so I knew the crossing would probably involve some vomiting. And so it did. Unexpectedly Ilanay got sick too. So all of us reached Freetown at around 10pm a little the worst for wear.
This is the start of our 180 days in Salone.

Managed to get to the house and found
lovely cool bedroom with AC on and got
the kids and myself showered to go to

bed.
Didn't realise as I closed the
bathroom
door that it was missing a
handle. 10 mins
of hollering got Hassan's
attention and
he got us out by swift kick
to door and
remaining lock broke.
Exhausted, I slept with the kids
in the king size bed, till morning.
