6 days to go.....


Before I even leave I want to thank everyone for the incredible donations that you have given me to bring to Zimbabwe. It's going to feel like Christmas when I get there. To check out some pictures already published on the internet of where I am going, google...African Impact Antelope Park Facebook. Tsavo and Thilani are two of the lions that will still be there when I arrive...just a little bigger.

Apparently 8 new cubs are there so I will be working and bottle feeding 6 week old cubs. Yes... the camera & video camera are packed up and ready to go.

I'm so excited that I shaved my cat to look like a lion!!

Getting ready to go

Well only 13 days before I leave for Zimbabwe Africa and I wanted to set up a blog so I can keep in touch with everyone while I'm away....and to let you know I haven't been eaten by a lion!! 4 needles, countless papers to fill out, shopping for stuff I need and trying to learn the local language...I am ready to go....I think. Just packing left to do.

Malaria pills...check
Immodium pills....check
Cipro pills (just incase)...check
Advil...check
Gravol (to pass out on the plane)....check

Did I just turn 90 or do i just need an extra suitcase for all of the pills???

Thanks everyone for your excitement and interest that you have expressed to me. It has made me even more excited about my trip...if that was possible.

Hopefully I will be able to post a little something each day and maybe a picture or two.

See you in Africa.
