Getting Ready to Travel

Wow! We leave in four days! After all the shots, medications, forms and meetings, the day is nearly here. Having never traveled beyond the continent of North America, I am experiencing a tremendous amount of excitement and just a little nervousness (when we used to compete in speaking contests, our FFA adviser said being a little nervous was a good thing).

What I am looking forward to the most is the opportunity to see landscapes and sights I never dreamed I'd get to see. While I don't know what those will be exactly, I am confident the sights, sounds, and smells of Mali will be memorable.

Now, if I can just remember to get Dwayne the copy of my passport!
