In for a bumpy ride

Okay so our flight was not so smooth as the previous post. So we get on the plane and start to taxi. The captain comes over the loud speaker and says that there is a noise in the nose that he doesn't like, so they are going back to the gate to have the machanics look at it. The look, they fix, we leave. Start to taxi again, hear captains voice, again. Yeah, heard same noise, going back to gate. by now we are about an hour and a half behind. The captain said that they would try and fix the porblem or find us another flight. We sit for a bit then are told to exit the plane until they figure out what is going on. So we are waiting and waiting and then are told that they have a plane, but it doesn't leave unitl 7:30pm. We finally get off, 6 1/2 hours late. So when we got to Amsterdam at 11am their time, which is 1am your time and find out that we have to wait 8 hours until our flight left. We landed in Bucharest on Wed morn at 12am which was 2pm Tuesday for y'all. We rolled into Hotel Confort at about 1am. We caught a train to Sighisoara at 1pm Wedesday and rolled into Sighi at 5:47pm.

Today is Thursday July 27th at 11:35am here which is 1:35 am there. We have finished bagging 150,o00 children's vitamins and about 7,000 pills to treat worms. And we are now getting lunch ready and then we are going to Tigmandru to start the medical clinics. Where we will set up the clinic, a triage center, and children's center. Bubbles will be getting ready here in a sec.

I have pictures, but they will be uploaded when I have more time to pick and choose what I want y'all to see. Out of the 180 I have taken since Monday.

Love to all!!!!
