Of course, I finished packing at 11am this morning. Airport check in went better than expected. I was allowed two free check in bags and I have window seats all the way! After a tearful goodbye to Amy and Brent I am about to board the flight from Columbia to DC.
I am so excited, still can't believe I am about to be in Uganda. I am overwhlemed with emotions the only way I know how to express them is to cry, not the sobbing tears the tears that swell behind your eyes then suddenly start to fall. Saying goodbye to the kitties, Amy and Brent was extremely hard. I don't even know why I bothered to put on make-up this morning. I can only imagine how to goodbye call to my parents is going to go. I'm sure I'll look like the crazy person in the airport crying. All well. Makes for good people watching. And I've done all of this before when leaving for Peace Corps but it doesn't make it any easier.
All right, we are boarding. Hopefully I will have time in DC to write, if not then Brussels. Did you know you have to pay for internet access in the airport and hotels there? ah the things we take for granted in America :)
here we go . . .
