So, 24 hours from now I will be on a plane to Ukraine. The time has defnitely gone by a lot more quickly then i ever thought it would. The adventure started when I got up at 3:45 Friday morning to get to the airport for my 5:20 flight. I arrived and immediately found out that my flight was cancelled, but would be on a flight at 7:20am through Northwest. So i went over to the Northwest checout and came upon my best friend Nathan's sister Stephanie who was one the same flight as me. It was a strange way to start a trip that I am supposedly leaving everything familiar behind. Got into Philladelphia at about 12 friday and got to the hotel which was in the historic section of Philly. I went out for a Philly Cheese Steak sandwich with another peace corps volunteer from Minnesota, it was delicious. We also stopped at the Liberty Bell and Independance Hall. It was a lot of fun to see these famous landmarks of our nation's independance. Friday and Saturday were spent just going over necessary details about the Peace Corp's expectations of us. Lots of information in a very short time period. Great to meet so many wonderful people though. I can't believe i am actually going to do this though. Definitely hits you in the face when everyone else is going through the same emotions as you.
Well, my next post will be in Ukraine and I am sure I will have much more to write about. Miss you all.
