Preparations Complete?

Here is our student group, ready to begin our unique adventure. There is still so much to figure out before we go, but I suppose part
of the excitement of a trip is to learn things on the fly.

Tomorrow, Wednesday March 21, whether we are ready or not, our group will venture forth into foreign lands, to visit mosques and churches, to bathe in Turkish baths and float in dead seas, to play basketball with students at an orphanage, to hike with the Bedouin in the shadow of Lawrence of Arabia, to pretend we are Indiana Jones at Petra and Saladin at the Crak de Chevalier, and to meet strangers who will become our friends. Who knows what we will discover and how we will emerge when we return.
