Fly One Time

Okay, so I am really flying four times, but I really love Ben Harper. Tonight is the last night before the real adventure begins. I fly to Philly tomorrow for training for 3-7, we drive to New York in the middle of the night and leave for South Africa Saturday morning. We have a short layover in Johannesburg Sunday morning and then are on our way to Malawi. Once we are in Malawi we have been told not to expect to use the internet for about eight weeks. That means I would LOVE letters from you! (see previous blog post for mailing directions)

This has been such a long time coming, but I am still beyond nervous. My bags are packed, I have been saying goodbyes since August, and now it is simply time to go. I will try and update as much as possible. Please keep me posted on your life too, I will only be gone 27 months. : ) I can't come back to spouses and babies I don't know about!!

Here goes. I guess I just have to fly one time.

love,
elisabeth
