"Be Calm" put to the test

Well the "Be Calm" part of my strategy has already been put to the test :)

There was an accident on the way to the airport....traffic was held up for an hour...I got to the terminal one hour before the flight instead of two....I had to ask people to let me go to the front of the security line in order to make my plane....ahhhh...nothing like rushing through an airport to catch an international flight...I just kept repeating....be calm....be calm....be calm...

I'm at the airport in Amsterdam...it's 9am here...the plane to Dar es Salaam leaves in 2 hours.

Be Calm and Carry On

That's my motto for this trip :)

Well...my bags are packed and I'm ready to go... as the song sings...My flight leaves today (Monday 8/23) at 6:30pm EDT and arrives in Dar es Salaam at 10:30pm Tuesday evening.

Thursday is my meeting with the Community Grants Manager at the US Embassy.

I'll be in touch....stay tuned.
