Off Again

A week from now I will be somewhere over Africa, shortly to land in Nairobi. I'm going to Nairobi, Kenya; Kigali, Rwanda; and Lusaka, Zambia, all for work. We're going to be assessing conditions for the start-up of an indigenous eye bank to support all of East Africa. I'm going as video and photo support and documentation. The entire trip should last roughly a week and a half, with four of those days in flight to or from Africa.

People keep asking me if I'm excited. My honest answer is that my head is swimming so quickly with preparations that I haven't had much time to consider my feelings about the trip. I've been madly ordering and testing video equipment on top of my regular work responsibilities, which include preparing for a retreat that starts the day after we return from the other side of the world. Basically, I'm a little to overwhelmed to be excited. :-)

Time for work.
