1.5 weeks to go!

I'll be on a plane to London in about a week and a half!

VERY EXCITED!!!!

All that I am waiting for now is to get my visa and passport back from the Ghana High Comission. I had a nightmare the other night that it didn't come back in time for me to leave for London and I had to cancel my WHOLE trip!

I'd also like to "blog" a little thank you to everyone who has made a donation to me of some kind! I am truly amazed and greatly appriciative of everyone's generosity - especially that of my extended family. I definitely hope that I am able effectively capture my experiences and pass them along to anyone who views my blog!

Also, I have discovered that I can "Skype" from my iPhone for free while I am gone (provided that I can find a WiFi zone in the places that we stay). This makes me really happy... now the challenge will be to teach my mom how to use Skype :)
