The Last Leg

I made it through Philadelphia and I have graduated from being a Peace Corps invitee to a Peace Corps trainee.  Wooooo! While in DC I was able to meet up with another volunteer who was from Oregon.  We made it to Philly together and found a shuttle to take us to our hotel.  When she and I climbed into the shuttle we were greeted by 4 other volunteers!  Pre-service Training was filled with meeting everyone and struggling through matching new names and faces.  I'm feeling a little tired and a little anxious about arrival, but most of all excited!!  I fly out of New York at 12:35 am and will arrive in Guyana around 7.  It's finally sinking in that I am actually doing this!  Keep your fingers crossed that all of the volunteers and the luggage arrives safely.
