Great News

I have excellent news to post. The tickets have been purchased!

Lisa Dalley has to be thanked for spending hours coordinating a confusing mess of dates and requests and budgetary considerations. She has brilliantly worked through the web of dates and places and times and various travel agents and resources to appease each request beautifully in a most cost effective way.

The team will leave April 1st (except Brent leaving a short while after) and will return on May 2nd. They will be going through Johannesburg, South Africa and then onto Ndola, Zambia where they will check in on the farm where Desi and Brian worked in 2005. Once Brent meets up with them then the whole team will travel on into the Democratic Republic of Congo!

On the return, the flights left an overnight in Johannesburg. They plan to use this time as a debrief period and they will visit the Apartheid Museum together.

With the purchase of tickets, the entry visa application could be sent. We are anxiously awaiting their arrival in the mail.
