Here we gooooo!

It's 5am and we are waiting for the first leg of our journey to begin. We fly from Detroit to DC then on to Addis Ababa, which I think is in Ethiopia. Our final flight takes us into Kigali. It's a total flight time of 18 hours!!! Hope we can sleep on the flight into Kigali to try and get on their time zone which is 7 hours ahead. I am really excited about what lies ahead for Robb and I. Don't think it's really hit me that we will be without Preston for 12 days but I am trying just to think of the kids we will be helping. I am not worried about Preston at all since he is in good hands with my family but I am a little worried about my Mom's sanity :). So looking forward to spending time at Hands of Hope orphanage and Gahangha for the Disabled where we will be building a swingset to aid the kids joints and developing muscles. Okay see you in Rwanda!!!
