Less than 48 hours to go.
Just about ready.
Tickets, passport, visa and travel insurance in hand.
Still need to empty out my bank account and turn it into traveler's checks. (When I was in Burkina Faso I had a bank account the Peace Corps deposited money into each month. It didn't occur to me until recently that my ATM card and credit card might not work on this trip like they did when I went to South Africa two years ago.)
Everything is packed - my clothes and toiletries, entertainment for the 40-ish hours of travel time. And medical supplies. Thanks to "running doc" I can ventilate and hydrate a small pre-school and either kill a small army or save the lives of some very sick kids.
Just need to take care of a few more things...

Kewl,
a blog. Now I can keep up with you.
Does this count as much as writing letters? (bad aunt, bad, bad aunt.. nah...just not much of a pen and paper person unless it involves drawing)
I'm proud of you baby doctor extraordinaire. Stay safe and kick some bad health butt!

Wow! Very cool. I can't wait to hear about your trip! Good luck and take care.
Anya,
I can't believe you are in Asmara/Eritrea. That is where my residency program has been going the past year to perform lower extremity reconstructive surgery! We go in April and October! I can only imagine you are going to fall in love with the area as my co-residents have. keep me posted, and let's meet there next year to catch up!!!! Jenn Suess your friendly Inova foot doc!!!
Hi Anya
Can't wait to read about your trip/work.
Yuliya
