We're flying out this weekend and after about 30+ hours of travel, we're to arrive in Entebbe, Uganda. They've been confiscating meds and supplies from missionaries, so our packing was strategic last night, as we lined the bags with clothes for padding to block the sound and feel of the medication inside. Then we had to make sure each bag was under weight so that we won't get charged (gotta love our safe airlines these days), and in some cases, unpack and repack.
We also had to inventory every item packed. And for the service based business that I'm accustomed to, this was an interesting step. How do you product based businesses do it?! I suppose a seamless system and lots of organization.
After the last bag was zipped, we sat around discussing miscellaneous details and tips and pointers from the been-there-before travelers to we first-timers. I couldn't help but notice the vibrance charge the room despite our solemn discussion. We'd be sitting together in the very same fashion in Tanzania at the same time next week.
It's going to be an intense journey. I will update my blog as much as possible while I'm away.
But it's official: we're ready.
