Finally

The last few days have finally come into view as I complete my last purchases and pack my bags for departure. I will be flying out of Louisville at 6:30 am on Sunday to arrive in Halifax, Nova Scotia late afternoon. I will be staying there for two nights before I board the ship at 9am, June 15th. Words can not describe how anxious I feel.

But this post is intended to not only describe my leave, but to gather information from family and friends. PLEASE facebook me with your email addresses because I will have very little contact during my trip due to limited internet minutes while on the ship. I do, however, have an email address when I aboard... cmkosse@semesteratsea.net. Feel free to email me with updates from your lives.

I will be updating this blog as I visit each country and will attempt to add photographs. Kaitlin has seriously asked for me to bring a cardboard cut-out of her head to take pictures of infront of the Egyptian pyramids.. Colosseum.. the grand bazaar.. etc. sooooo we'll see.

I cant believe I have been blessed with this opportunity. I will miss everyone... and will bring home gifts (including the rug requested by nancy).
