T-6months and counting

So the ticket is purchased the visa has been applied for and I have started the shots for Hep B and Typhoid and Yellow fever to follow. Trying to ship stuff to take with me to the villages is just an incredible maze. DHL wants $7,000 to ship 8 boxes of supplies @ 50 lbs a box. Virgin Airlines only wants $1250 to take it with me and the cargo arm of Virgin won't even accept stuff to ship from me as I am not a regular shipper. Hmm if i change the p's to t's I am really regular, honest. So the logistics and the lists continue to develop and as I check things off more seem to appear. It is starting to become real as when this project started in October it was 11 months away it is now less than 6 months. D day is September 18, 2012 10:40 pm JFK to London and the following day on to Nairobi.None of this would be possible if I was not blessed by my friends who are just the best (FOKer's I yub u).stay tuned. I can't wait.
