Well, this is it... my last night in the States until 2010. The thoughts going through my head right now... how tall Wynter will be when I get back, how Hannah will be potty trained, talking in complete sentences and getting ready to start kindergarten, how I will probably have a lot more nieces and nephews, and about how is it possible that my whole life for the next two years manages to fit in two 70 lb. suitcases and one 36.5 lb. suitcase. (It seems that I should need WAY more than that to survive... especially since my roommate brought 8 bags with her!) But the thought that keeps going through my head is how Jesus told the disciples to take their cloak and go. They had a lot less than 176.5 lb. of luggage! (Correction... 80 kilos! :) So, I'm going... with my cloak, my hoodie, my swimsuits, my first aid kit, my digital camera, my books... Oh, wait. Aren't I supposed to be learning to live a simple life?
Oh, well. I guess I still have a LOT to learn.
Flight times: Friday (June 26) 6:30 pm (Newark to Heathrow)
Saturday (June 27) 7:20 pm (Heathrow to Dar es Salaam)

Please pray for Safe Travel!
