I've been crying this morning and there is no real reason. I know it's mostly not big stuff, but with 10 days left until we go, I'm starting to stress a bit. And I've not been able to fall asleep for anything.
I was expecting to have our airline tickets in-hand last night. Well, I discovered this morning they were not sent out until yesterday...and they were sent priority mail, so we will not get them for 3-5 business days! This does not leave much time to make corrections if anything is wrong. Also, the price we were billed by the airline is about $50/ticket higher than we were quoted, which I understand the reason, but we were given no warning or invoice. I had to call and ask to get it.
We have not heard anything about hotel reservations. I asked the travel agent to make these for us a week ago. I understand that they email with the hotels in Addis, and this can take some time. But a week? I was trying to save our in-country rep the trouble of doing this for us, but if I don't hear something from the t.a. today (I emailed for the second time since our request), I'm just going to ask him to do it.
I'm going to hang the cat...
I've been snapping at poor Elizabeth all morning...
David is going to have to go find me some medication with a sleep aid because this not falling asleep until 3:30, 4, 4:30 a.m. is not helping anything!
On a positive note, we heard from the BCS family traveling at the same time we are!!! I'm excited to meet them!
