Goodbye to everything I know

Hello All

By the time you read this I will probably either be in Miami or Jamaica. It's around midnight here in Houston. I'm sleepy but I don't want to sleep. My flight leaves at 6 am and there is no point in going to sleep now just to wake up around 3pm to head for the airport. I have to leave this early so I can make it to the orientation in Miami.

Packing was like giving blood...slow and painful. I had to leave behind a lot of my shoes among other treasured items. Even with my sacrifices I still managed to fill up to capacity two suitcases, one carry on and my purse. I am dreading having to drag all my belongings through the Miami and Jamaica airports.

Okay. My eyes are getting blurry. Maybe I will take a quick nap. I hope all is well with everyone. You all mean so much to me and I am excited to be sharing this experience with you.

So begins the adventure.

Claudia

Thanks for including me in your travelog list. I look forward to hearing about your experiences. It will be great. In Turkey we met several Peace Corps workers. All of them were great people, doing a good job, and feeling satisfaction with what they were doing.

I admire you for your volunteer work.
