On the road (so to speak) again

Wednesday, March 29th, 2006

Today, we will pick up Kevin and head on our way to S. Africa!!  We have been slowly getting prepared for our trip, shopping yesterday (I got some new shoes, so thanks for sending back the ugly ones ; Jaimi especially says thanks), packing last night and this a.m., finishing up HP business (for Jaimi), doing our nails, planning our itinerary (we got a great schedule emailed from our S. African host; I’ll try to add it to the blog), and one sleepless night of bad travel dreams and missing my dogs. 

Not looking forward to more travel, but I am excited to see Kevin and to get our African adventure started!!  Now we just have to pick up some last minute supplies, pick up our third traveler, load our luggage, call a taxi, catch the s-bahn to Stuttgart Airport for the germans, to the train station for me, take a train back to Frankfurt Airport, and take respective overnight flights to Johannesberg…then to Port Elizabeth.  I am exhausted already.  Hopefully, the movies at least go better on this flight.

Well, miss you all!! 

PS- Anyone check on the cat, lately?

 

In flight

Well, I’m finally about to head out on my long journey.  I am packed (more or less; prepared for a six month stint but undoubtedly forgot my deoderant – sorry 21B). 

Thanks for all the well wishes, words of wisdom, and woeful warnings.  As I start on my way, I will be thinking of lost luggage, man-eating crocodiles, and tourist mishaps.  Fortunately I will be well-prepared with all my last minute travel packs!!

Well, I guess I will meet up with you all at my next stop!!  Enjoy your comfy beds, while I spend the next 22 hours in airplane coach seating and on airport floors!!
