About to embark. Purchases are made, luggage is partially packed, as much good American food as possible eaten. (It's been a good couple weeks- Chipotle, shawarma, Whitehouse Restaurant in Clare, Cops and Donuts, Ted's Montana Grill, and of course good home cooking.) I'm eating like a prisoner on death row, not because Africa's that bad (it's not), but because I really really enjoy burgers and ice cream, and it'll be a while before I find a quality imitation of either.
So here's the plan: Denver > Detroit > Amsterdam > Entebbe > Kigali. Just over 24 hours from start to finish, so not terrible. I have a couple potential apartments to visit (really just rooms in houses w/ other expats) and as soon as I'm moved in, it's off to Nairobi for a couple weeks. I'll post here on occasion, hopefully the transition from my old blog doesn't cause people any difficulty.
I appreciate your prayers as I travel and get settled in in Rwanda.
