Just home from an evening at Krysta’s; pizza, wine & a shot to celebrate! We have laughed for 2 hours and looked at tons of safari pictures. The one with the lion’s face and paws against the passenger window is priceless.  I can’t believe it’s finally here!

Aiden is set with his board and just before we left he brought me his toy telescope and said “here Mimi…you need to take this with you”! My heart just dropped. Love his sweet nature so much.

When I got home, I pre-checked us in and “thank goodness”. Our itinerary says we leave at 1:30. Checkin says we leave at 12:00! We would for sure have missed our flight! How does that happen and we don’t know about it?

Before it gets crazy, thank you to my family for taking care of business while I am gone and for allowing this day to happen. I love you all so very much! And to all my dear friends who have wished me safe travels and silly thoughts…thank you so much for sharing this experience with me.

Stay tuned for the rest of the story! Africa…here I come!
