the countdown has officially begun, and i am so very excited to say that i leave for kenya in less than a month! the plane tickets and most of the things i need for the trip have been bought, and i'm anxiously anticipating finally being able to board delta flight 68 at 6:15pm on june 28th. i'm not, however, excitedly anticipating the nineteen total hours of flying time to get there. thankfully, our flights have been broken up so we have an overnight layover in amsterdam going and coming back, and i am already anticipating how great a hotel bed is going to feel after a month of sleeping in what is basically a glorified hut. the unfortunate part of having this blog right now, is that until i get to kenya, there's not a great amount of information to update all of you on. however, i will be posting a few more entries once the departure date nears, so keep checking back!
