It's really happening..seriously

After a week of hanging with Kim and Owen who were up here visiting, I am ready to prepare for Kenya. I said a tearful goodbye to Owen this morning (something was stuck in both of my eyes) but have since cheered up because I finally got my flight to Mombasa!! Bryan and I are headed to the Poconos for canoing and camping this weekend and then I will be full time getting ready for the summer. Here are my flights - should I try to see some of London during my 13 hour layover?

Good morning!

I am planing on getting my airline ticket to Mombasa tomorrow if all goes well. In the meantime, I got this map from Mark Johnson who is a faculty member at the New School and also a board member for the organization I will be working for. It gives you a good idea of where I will be - there to the left of the boat that is bigger than the river and above and to the left of the castle.
