Tomorrow I leave for Africa. After 12 vaccinations, weeks of packing, troubles with booking the trip, and lots of pleas to stick around for yet another ground breaking project at work, I am ready to go. I will fly from Columbus to Detroit, Detroit to Amsterdam (for a quick smoke), and then from Amsterdam to Nairobi. It will take over 24 hours to get there. Good thing I have lots of reading materials! This map shows where I will be. Cross your fingers for me. If emergencies come up, text me, but otherwise, check here. I think I will get a chance to blog along the way- I hope so! Post comments if you can, I love reading them. Safari means "journey" in one of the East African tribal languages, and I am ready (given lots of sunscreen and bug spray).

I flew Chicago Detroit, Detroit Amsterdam, Amsterdam Birmingham once - I had a really nasty stomach bug and was very ill in the toilets in Detroit, struggled Detroit to Amsterdam and cried when I finally reached Birmingham! Hope your journey was considerably better!! :)
