At last, I'm off to the Sudan!

My garden here at home in South Africa

By the time this post is published today, I will be on my way to Bloemfontein. I catch the domestic flight to Johannesburg at 9:45 this morning. I board the international flight, Ethiopian Airlines at 14:15 and I'm on my way! Whoo-Hoo! Tomorrow, Friday, is SUNDAY in Sudan (confusing I know, but even I will have to get used to it!) so my husband is home. I should be set up in my home office in his apartment by Saturday morning and hope to get back to blogging.

I have glanced at all the comments and thank you all for your kind comments. Of course we ALL know how it feels like you're on a roller-coaster the last few days before a long trip.

Hear you all many thousands of kilometers up the continent!
