3 days until take off

My departure for China is in just 2 days and I am getting more excited each day. I must first pack my bags and I haven't even begun that process. Leave it to me to wait until the day before to pack. I have always been a bit of a procrastinator. I have mixed feelings about my departure. I am really looking forward to experiencing a new culture and seeing how people across the world live, but I know I will miss my family terribly.
Hopefully this blog will be a great way for you all to stay in contact with me and learn a little about my adventures in China. Look for pictures of GG, our Grace Group Penguin that has just arrived from her journey to England. Keep me in your thoughts!
