Getting Ready!

Hi everyone, welcome to our blog all about our trip to Uganda. The travellers are Tracy, Tamara, Jasmine, Amy, Ashley and me (Rhonda). There are less than two weeks until we leave, unless British Airways makes other plans for us! We have to call on May 19 or 20 to see if our flight will be changed.

In the meantime, today I packed all the wonderful supplies that Angela got from the Compassionate Care Warehouse and others in Victoria BC. My husband Carey had to help me squeeze everything into two LARGE suitcases I got at the Salvation Army today! There were lots of metal speculums, syringes, baby clothes and blankets, catheter supplies and other very useful stuff. Also took my first dose of Dukoral (yuck) and got started registering with DFAIT. Getting very real now!
