It is the first day of the three week adventure in Lusaka, Zambia. I am writing this on the plane. It now the ninth hour of this flight. Only 5 more to go. It feels like it’s been 9 days. I am feeling very envious of the people in the first class. I am restless and tired, but not tired enough to fall asleep. One thing I regret not bringing is sleeping pills. Today’s trip began around 3:30am for me. I woke up, had my last shower in the U.S for awhile. I enjoyed every second of it. Don’t know what it will be like in Africa. My parents and I left the house at 5:15am to pick up Jenna. We got Jenna, loaded up the car and were on our way to the airport. I felt anxious and nervous, felt like my chest was going to explode. I was dreading saying goodbye to my parents. I hate goodbyes. Our bags were 50 pounds (thank goodness!!) We boarded the first flight to JFK. The flight was only 40 minutes long. It was my first time in NYC. The airport is huge! I am so happy we have a small group of only 6 people. The group dynamic is great and we’ve had so many laughs so far. I still can’t believe were on our way to Zambia. I don’t know when it will set in, but it’s amazing. Can’t wait to see what’s to come. Here’s a picture of the group were just missing Charmaine.
