Tomorrow is the big day! Paul likes to say we are "peacing out". I can't wait to get the show on the road...but I know it is going to be a very long road (2 days to reach our destination to be exact). Tri Cities airport, Detroit, Amsterdam, Dar es Salaam...then driving through a game park (near Kilimanjaro), spending the night somewhere possibly, then circling south to Mbeya, which is near Chimala Hospital (check out the link below) where we are staying. As I reflect on this moment, I feel extremely excited to venture off into the unknown and grateful for this opportunity. However, I am extremely exhausted because I graduated yesterday and haven't had time to just relax. But I would not trade this experience for anything. I feel like I have so much more to say before I leave, but I know that the best is yet to come!
I have attached some photos that show some of our preparation: 4 shots (even though I am now a nurse, I am still a wimp), graduation, and packing our medical supplies. I hope Paul and I will be able to manage our blog while we are in Tanzania...I guess we will find out soon!
