On my way!

After 2 days of packing and re-packing we arrived at the Cedar Rapids airport with 3 50+ lb. suitcases and 2 carry-ons. Thankfully with a few adjustments the suitcases made weight! About to walk through the security gate. I'm about to begin my journey and will arrive in Dar Es Salaam at 3pm Iowa time on Sunday (1/31/2010).

Thanks for all of your support and I look forward to keeping you posted!
