skype

Until the end of October the only communication I will be able to have with my sister will be either me reading her blog, or skyping with her.  We have been "practicing" a lot with Skype/talking to each other a lot on it the past month.

I was so excited I got to Skype with her while she was sitting in the Ethiopian terminal in the Dulles airport.  13 hours from when their plane took off she will land in Ethiopia, then she has a 2 hour flight to Uganda.  They won't land in Uganda until 6:00 am Eastern Time, which will be 1:00 pm in Uganda.  Needless to say, they will have some jet lag!  I will update tomorrow to let everyone know she is there, and if we have talked to her yet.  Let's be honest, I will NOT be awake at 6:00 am, so I will relay from my mom, since I'm sure she won't sleep a wink ;)

Here is a screen shot of Bec while she is waiting to get on the plane!

You would think that getting on a plane for 13 hours wouldn't make someone this excited, but Becca has a passion like none other for those children and she cannot wait to be there!
