Confirmed

My phone was ringing and beeping at 7.30 this morning, a sunday morning!!
It was Tulia in Ilula wanting to confirm everything.

Everything needing booking has been booked, and taxi driver will meet me with a sign with my name on it :)

In less than 72h I will be on my way, feels unbelievalble, I need to pinch myself.

Packing process still in limbo, nothing much new there. Good thing is that I dont need to bring any sheets, towels and sleeping bag, that leaves a lot of space for other stuff.

Need to buy kleenex, a pad lock for my bag and bandaids before I go. Where did I put that list again? :)

My sister promised to email me some pictures from back home, so I can show the children what it looks like with a meter of snow, thank you sister! :)

And on friday I recieved a wonderful gift: a dynamo driven flash light, so no need to worry about batteries. ;)
This will come in handy as to quote Berit "electricity, water and phone connection comes and goes, we take it as it comes, one day at a time"

Now I need to sleep, will have a busy day tomorrow.

Are you gonna buy new sheets n towels when you get there? I thought those were the first things to pack? You wouldn't want to use their sheets especially at the YWCA.
