Final Preparations

We had a final team meeting yesterday, checking last minute details and planning what we can take to help as we go.  The team are in an excited mood with a fair degree of nervousness, mostly because of the unknown.  What will we actually be doing?  Will we cope?  Our coping mechanism is plenty of laughter and much prayer.

It is interesting that we don't know each other very well even though we've seen each other around college a lot.  This will quickly change as we spend time together in stressful situations and have to put our trust in one another.

The next time we get together will be in the early hours of 2nd September at Heathrow airport by the check in desk!
