London-town

We have made it to London safely. All pretty tired. Liam slept OK - Zoe not so much. We spent the day in London trying to stay awake!! Saw "Big Ben" and Westminster Abbey and the London Eye and spent many, many hours on transit! The tube is down for repairs so we spent lots of time on buses-Zoe is quite in awe of mass transit!

We are planning on heading to church for Easter Service in the morning then if the weather is nice Roz has planned a picnic and an Easter egg hunt for the kids. So a fairly mellow day, which I think we all need-we are pretty much spent. Getting on the plane in Jo-Burg was a huge relief-2 years of waiting for our family to be complete and we were leaving Africa as 4!! What an amazing thing!

We are so thankful for a couple days here before we get on another night flight home. Continue to pray for us-especially for transitions with Zoe-she is doing famously here, after a couple hours of being shy she has warmed up and is having fun playing with her cousin Skyla. Pray for the transition to home, pray for sleep for all of us as we change 8 hours on our flight home. Pray for the flight that Zoe would be able to sleep-sleep is her hardest thing!

I know this is disjointed and I am not sure if I have made a complete sentence but this is a very tired McKnight Report...

    What a wonderful Easter!! Finally...family of 4...your dream come true; on the way home; a visit with Chad, Roz and Skyla. Glad you have a chance to stay in London for a bit and recuperate some before the last leg of the journey.
    Thanking the Lord for His goodness!

    We are also SO grateful and glad that you have managed to be with Roz Chad and Skyla. It will be great that the cousins have all met so that when they visit Canada they will just take off from where they have left. Every blessing and praise to our GREAT GOD . Happy Easter to you ALL.
