Departing...

Departing at 04:20pm Tue, Dec 28.

My flight is on the books.  It's real.  7 weeks.

I had a moment a few days ago - Am I dreaming?  Am I really going to South Africa?

I'm going.  A part of my mind already belongs to the country as my thoughts are consumed with the unknown.  The endless ponderings of what will it be like.  Questions that remain unanswered until the reality of it is real.

I'm on my way.
