After a wonderful week at Tufts in which I both: received complete closure and also realized that I am but a mere visitor on campus this semester, I headed to Dulles on a Sunday morning flight out of Logan. I'm thrilled to have gotten the chance to spend time with friends and give proper hugs and kisses before departing. I am reminded of what a wonderful place Tufts is, mostly because of the people that fill it's boundaries.
I will give you a breakdown:
- 7 am wake up, change, drive to Logan
- 9 am - 11 am BOS to Dulles
- 11 am - 4:40 pm wait in Dulles airport (met several group members here including Brittany with whom I caught up for a while)
- 4:40-5:30 board our plane (yes, of course, we maneuvered our way to sitting in our groups)
- then commenced a 16.5 hour plane ride, with a stop in Dakar
- at this point, no one really knew what time it was or was supposed to be, just that everyone all of a sudden was really friendly and had accents
- we re-checked our bags and boarded a 2 hour flight to Cape Town
In Cape Town, we were met by a wonderful crew and driven to the apartments we will be staying. I will give a better description later but the apartment buildings (courts, as they are called) are beautiful. My room has a couch and tv (what?!). I met some great new people, and I am thrilled to get to know the area in the next coming days. Tomorrow starts at 7:30 (about 4.5 hours away) with orientation...sleep is overrated, as I like to say. But, perhaps the sleepless lifestyle is ill-advised. We shall see! :)
