Over the next month Meg and I will be blogging about our experiences in Kijabe, Kenya. We have been planning for almost a year for this trip and we are thankful that it is finally here. Megan has spent many long hours and sleepless nights preparing and I have confidence in her thoroughness. We are very thankful for our family, our friends, our church, and the folks at my residency that have given of their time and resources for this to happen. First hurdle, 18 hours of flying from Detroit to Amsterdam to Nairobi then finally a one hour drive to Kijabe.
A couple quick facts
-The time difference from Central standard time to Kenya is 8 hours
-We will be missing exactly 3 Alabama football games.
-12 vaccination shots among the 3 of us.
-72 pills for malaria prophylaxis
-At least 100lbs of luggage
-30 pulse oximeters donated by UHS for use in the operating theatre in Kijabe
-7 night of call in Kijabe

We took 150lbs+ of luggage just to go to Cabo and it was only so we'd look cute and have too many toys around. Clearly you guys can accomplish a lot more with just 100lbs of luggage.
Praying for you guys and love you so very much!
Terrific to hear from y'all on your way to the great adventure. Blessings to Megan for the scriptures and reflections. Prayers always.
Thinking of y'all! Can't wait to hear of all of your adventures!
