Leaving tomorrow
Well the time has finally come. I leave tomorrow. I'm excited and a little anxious. The kids are a little crazy and upset and acting out. Bill joked that I'm the lucky leaving - he has to stay and put up with them :) And I am excited to go get Abigail. I will meeting Sue, with our agency, at JFK and we will be flying over to Ethiopia together. That makes me feel a little better. She's been there done that too many times - she's a pro. I am stopping in Dubai, Saudi Arabia overnight on Sunday and then leaving there early Monday for the last leg to Addis. I should arrive around 11:30. From then I will be checking in my Guest House and then leaving again to go out to Will's orphanage. I will have the opportunity to meet Will's bio grandfather. It will be a long trip and require an overnight stay but when will I ever have the chance again. I'm taking a scrapbook for him so he can see Will now and how much he's changed. Because of this side trip I will not be getting Abigail right away, I will be getting her on Wednesday. After that Thursday is our Embassy appointment and then shopping on Friday. We leave late Saturday and will be home on Sunday. Hopefully I will have better email access on this trip and I will plan on posting from Ethiopia. :)
