Oh I forgot to add on the list to pray for "WESTERN TOILETS" !!!!! Yes I do tend to get all the fun stuff ---- I think the thought of "squat toilets" is the only thing that makes me nervous (we may have to go shoe shopping when I get back)

9 days and counting

August 27, 2008
In 9 days I will be flying to Tanzania, Africa. I will be able to check one piece of luggage (50 pounds or less) and carry-on one piece --- I have both bags almost completely packed, and have begun the unpacking and repacking stage. Franklyn is laughing at me because the large bag is half full with food (granola bars, trail mix, etc) he says just enjoy the local food while there ---- you know a few bugs ---- maybe you will be lucky and get some dipped in chocolate.
