Finally got plane tickets!

So today the reality of what I'm doing actually hit me. Lisa emailed me the plane itinerary...and I feel like I'm actually GOING now! I'll be flying from Jacksonville to Atlanta to New York by myself. Then I'll meet up with Zach, a fellow intern, in New York. From there, we will fly to Morocco and then to Gabon. I've been getting a lot of "Where is Gabon??" So for everyone who doesn't know (which I didn't either before I applied :) )..here is a map:

This Friday I'm going home for Bree's wedding shower (CRAZY!!) and I have an appoinment Friday at 3 in Valdosta to get my Yellow Fever Vaccination. Then I can start applying for my Visa! I'm really excited to see my family and friends this weekend. My mom is really starting to freak about me going to Gabon...she took off the day after I fly out just to cry haha. Poor Tammy. My dad is freaking too..but he's staying strong for me. I'm so glad my parents are being really supportive though. I couldn't have gone without them. I am very lucky:). I will only get to see my best friend Lauren for a few days before I fly out because she is coming home from Colorado. My other best friend Bree is getting married May 9th. I feel like everything in my world is changing so fast! I love it but at the same time it's scary. I know God has everything already worked out and that reassures me. My boyfriend Aaron is also getting a little nervous about my trip, but he is also very excited and supportive which is exactly what I need. :)

That's all for now I think...continue praying that everything will fall into place. Thank you everyone for being so supportive...I'd be a wreck without you!
