The eve before...

The time is 7:13PM. The Choral Scholars should arrive in about 15 minutes. Brittany is picking me up tomorrow morning at 8:45AM for the airport. And my room looks like this:




Dah.

On the bright side, I'm pretty sure everything I need is in that room somewhere.

All said, welcome to my African blog. Honestly, I never imagined writing a blog. I'm terrible at keeping up. Much less a blog about going to Africa. But here I am, posting pictures of my room on the night before I leave. It's sure to be an adventure and I'd love to take my friends and family along, as much as possible, for the brief trip.

Tomorrow I will be boarding a number of planes that will bring me to Rwanda. I will be working with three other colleagues on gathering stories and images for our next documentary on poverty. I will be gone for one solid week, returning the Sunday before Thanksgiving. I'm sure this will have an affect on my thankfulness.

Time to sing! I love you all. Your prayers are appreciated.
