2 weeks away!!!!

Two weeks from tonight we will be all cozy in our seats on the plane. We are leaving on Thursday March 20. Our flight departs at 10 pm. In only 25 hours we will arrive in Vietnam all rested and ready for our adventures, YA, RIGHT!!!!!!!!!
This weekend I hope to pull out all of the summer clothes and see what still fits, Maya has grown about 2 inches and I will not reveal how much I have grown, GROAN!!!!! Hopefully everything still fits. All of the summer clothes in the stores seem to be "cruise wear" we don't need cruise wear, not this year anyway!
After a conference call last week, Maya and I have a better idea of what we will be doing on our food distribution/school team. It seems we will depart each morning at 7 am. We will travel to a distribution area where large sacks of rice, sugar, beans and nuts will be waiting for us. We will package and distribute enough food to last 150 families 2 months. We will distribute the food at 2 separate locations each day. At 11 am we will take the kids back to the hotel, have lunch and hang out for a short while in the AC and then set off for our school visits. i believe we will visit 3 schools each afternoon. During the school visits the children will pass out the bikes that have been donated, pass out school supplies and exchange art work that all of the children have been collecting. At 4 pm we will head back to the hotel, have dinner and go to bed!!!!
Our team has it a bit easier than the others. The home renovation team will leave at sun up and return at sundown. I think the sun sets pretty late! The medical team leaves at sun up and returns when they run out of patients. They are expecting 500 patients per day!
So, it seems that we will all have breakfast together and that's about it. I am so delighted that I get to spend my day with the kids! In am really excited to see the interactions and the excitement!
I have added an "interesting sites" section. Catalyst has an "official blog " site that should prove to be really informative. The teens on the trip will be responsible for gathering info from all of the teams and blogging each night. Check it out if you have a chance!
