3.5 more weeks...

I received my pre-departure packet and reserved my plane ticket for Philly on Friday. I leave from Tampa @ 6 in the morning on July 1st. After an hour long stop in MIA, I'll make it to Philly by 12 PM. Three days in Philly and pre-departure training will be done and I'll be Africa bound, probably with a flight transfer in Paris. I've tested my hammock and bug netting and everything is a go. Over the last couple weeks I continually stuff small foodstuffs in my check-ons.
