Dear Readers,
We are getting into crunch time. For a while there I thought that we were doing pretty well, getting informed on the region, watching movies about Sudan, having meetings with contacts who have been or will be in Khartoum . . . but boy . . . there is still so much to do and not much time to do it in!
This week we are trying to buy a car, arrange for the last bits of electronics neccessary for us to be able to stay in touch with all our friends and families, and plan for our own Bon Voyage party.
Next week we'll have to actually start arranging things to be packed - what comes with us, what goes to storage, and what gets shipped over land and sea (which we may never see again).
After that we'l have our party, the movers will come, and we'll live out of suitcases until the departure date . . . May 7.
Stay tuned for more and here's to hoping our visas get processed on time!
