Packing is finished!

Even thought I have been sick for the past week, I have been able to get the last things on my packing list. Packing for 6 months is considerably easier then for 2 years. I also just found out that I will have to take a swim test in the black water that is common in Guyana. Thank goodness I am a good swimmer but the black water is sort of creeping me out! I am guessing it will be during my 3 days of training with the Peace Corps staff and then I am on my own working at the school. I can't wait to meet the children as well as the staff that are working at the Sophia School.

I am getting more and more excited about this new adventure and am looking forward to touching down in Georgetown, Guyana on March 29th at 6:41am.
