Just a Quick Update


For those of you who are reading just to see what's happing with my trip, an update. All's quite on my front. All of us newbies are anxiously waiting to receive our itineraries and find out when we fly out of our home ports. My being PDX of course! It's tough sitting here and packing and not knowing when I'm really leaving. I'm saying August 14th, but that's actually my expected arrival date and to arrive by that date I'd have to leave the 13th. We're reaching the end of Ramadan too which means everythign will close down for the holy days. If we don't have our itineraries before the 7th, we wont have them until after the 12th and that's a little bit scary. I'm trying my hardest to relax and just be prepared to go the 13th. Hopefully it will all work out as smoothly as others are saying it will!

Well that's all for now... we're down to 8 days... and I'm still excited, though still not accepting the fact that its' almost time to say goodbye to my life here.
