T-5 days

Since I'm leaving for South Africa next Thursday, I figured it would be a good time to start this. While I'm in South Africa, I think I will have access to the internet about once a week and I'll update this then. As of now, I know that I'll be staying in Port Elizabeth, South Africa while working at a rehab clinic and teaching little kids about HIV/AIDS Monday through Friday. I'll have the weekends free to explore and go adventuring.

Next time I update this, I'll hopefully be in South Africa!

  5. Meggie, I am so happy and excited for you, and I can't wait to hear all about the amazing time you are going to have! I'm going to miss you, but I just need to keep reminding myself that you're going to be having such a wonderful life-changing experience, and that I can just cope for three months until you're back. Love you!

  8. Great to hear from you! Your Grandma Moore just read us your blog at my dining room table. I'm excited for you. Some will tell you "Oh, how much you'll learn." I think of all the experiences you'll have ~ guess that's really just another way of saying, "learn." Love and positive thoughts, Aunt Lucille

  9. Meg thank you for keeping us posted on your activities. You sound as if you are getting used to SA and are getting to know the people quite well. Grandpa and I really enjoyed talking to you on your mothers Birthday. It was so good to hear your voice. We miss you and love you.
