First Possible Problem

N: 37 deg 37.266 feet, W: 122 deg 23.467 feet (plus or minus 115 feet)

And it came in before we even got through security at the airport.

Mobal, our choice for satellite phone rental gave me a call.  They are currently out of phones!  Well, since we are having it delivered to the east coast we have a couple of extra days.  However, it's still a little annoying.

We may have to get the Mobal GSM phone instead and try to rent a sat phone when we're actually in Kenya.  We'll see what happens.

On the plus side, our GPS unit got a fix while in the airport.  It didn't have enough time to get a fix before we got on BART on our way over, though, so we don't have that as a start.  (We had picked up a new Garmin etrex Vista Cx -- it's great because it uses microSD/TransFlash cards for storage while still having some internal memory.)
