Checked in.

All bags are checked and I am sitting in Green Bay waiting to fly out.

Tomorrow I will arrive at 8:10 local Liberia time (2:10 cst time) with stops in Chicago, Brussels and Ghana with final destination in Monrovia.

Butterflies as excitement to begin the trip mounts. Grateful that the anxiety portion is over. Most of that is my own lack of preparation. I’m thankful to God for all the small details being worked out….visa, luggage etc. It wasn’t small when I worried, but looking back it is insignificant.

I ended up packing an extra bag to fit all the literature and such I wanted to take along. 50 lbs., 49 lbs. and 48.5 lbs. not much room was left. The extra $200 now seems well worth it.
