Salutations!
Well, it's finally the big day! I've been busy packing (which is surprisingly difficult...) and making sure everything is in order for my trip. It's been very hard saying goodbye to my friends and family at home and at Hope, but it's helped a lot that everyone has been really supportive and encouraging! Everything is packed snugly in one of my two large suitcases or a carry-on, and I managed to fit most things I wanted, but it should be interesting coming back since I didn't leave much room.... hhmm.
Dad and I are driving to Chicago in the morning and my flight leaves around 2:00 from O'hare. Rachel and I will meet Maggie at JFK in New York City, and the three of us will fly on to Manchester. We're meeting my program director, Edith, at the airport and catching a bus to York!
Summer has been really wonderful, but I am definitely excited finally arrive and begin exploring Europe! I know I'll see some really beautiful places and meet really interesting people. I'll try to post pictures and updates here whenever I get a chance! I would really appreciate prayers for our safe travel, and that our transition is smooth.
Til next time!
