And we're off! (almost)

We meet at SAAS this afternoon, to load up the luggage and head to the airport, driven by the ever-wonderful Tomas. Then it's nine hours to London, seven hours in Heathrow, and nine hours to Lusaka. Arriving at 6:30 AM Lusaka time, Monday morning (that's 8:30 PM Sunday, Seattle time). If all goes on schedule, we will be descending into the Lusaka airport synchronized with the Africa-orange sunrise. When those of us who have been there before get off the plane, we'll know we're in Zambia when we hear the Cape doves calling "work harder, work harder."

  1. Have a safe trip! I'm so jealous of my mother-in-law (Wanda), who is a chaperone. Can I be one next year? LOL

    I will gladly help you put together a nice travel book of the photos you take (pro bono) and provide a link where you can order them. Just give Wanda all the photos when you return.
