Traveling into South Sudan is not as easy as flying into many places in the world. Although South Sudan is roughly the size of Texas, there are only 60 miles of paved roads in the entire country. Yes, this means rough roads! Poor condition of the roads mean slow travel, and due to our time constraints, we will need to fly into Torit to make our visit. So here is our travel route:
After we arrive in Nairobi, we then will have 24 hours to recover, and we will then travel this route:
The team that is currently in Torit does drive in, but it is at least a 3 day drive from Nairobi. So our children will have two new experiences: flying on a 747, and then working our way down to a Cessna 206. Our pilot (flying with AIM Air) will fly in and stay with us in Torit, until we journey back out to Nairobi. Now that is service!
