We are off. After a wirlwind staging in Philly we are headed to JFK for a red eye flight to Paris and then on to Lome Togo.
During staging I learned that I will be headed out with a group of 23 volunteers consisting of both health volunteers (CHAP) and business volunteers. They are all exceptional people and after a few ice breaker games I am looking forward to getting to know them better in the coming weeks.
With a scambe for the last few checks of email and phome calls we have piled a few mountans of luggage on to the bus and away we go.
