Preparation + Things I'll Miss

It's amazing how things just fall in to place when we're meant to do something or to be somewhere.  In only one week, we have sold both of our vehicles, all necessary baby items (crib, highchair, jumperoo, etc) and even found a new tenant to rent the house.

My mom will be joining us for the first 3 weeks in Tanzania and I am so excited to show her the country!  Last week, we took a family trip to the immunization nurse and left with sore arms.  However, we are glad to be vaccinated and all set to go.

As thrilled as I am to get back to TZ (trust me, it's a lot), I'm sure there are things I'll eventually miss from my homeland too.  Here a few of them in no particular order:
  • In N Out
  • Hot Showers
  • My Family
  • Drinking water without boiling it first
  • Blending in
  • Reliable electricity
  • Understanding everything said around me
Therefore, it is now my goal to get my fill of these things over the next 11 days.  In fact, I believe I hear In N Out calling my name right now...
