T minus one hour until we head to the airport. Its actually happening. The many months of waiting and preparing will be put to the test. This morning at 730am we headed to the medical facility to began the grueling process of vaccinations. Today wasn't to bad, but we started our malaria meds today and apparently some side effects are "vivid dreams." Now I am no genius, but I don't think that our first night on these meds should be in a plane having Jim Morrison like dreams. Those poor people around us.

I have had a few people ask me in the last couple days if I am getting more nervous as it is getting closer. The answer is that I actually feel more comfortable and a little more relaxed. It makes a big difference with the support group from everyone here and all the info that we have been given.

So, my friends and family, I will be talking to you tomorrow from Yaounde, Cameroon.

Love all,
Dave
