Last Night in Germany

---

This will be the last entry I'll be writing from Germany for a while. The next will be from Kenya! Tomorrow morning I'm off to Frankfrut to begin my 24 hour travel day to Mombasa Kenya. Quite excited but also a little nervous and scared... but mostly excited. It's been a great semester in Germany and I can't believe it's over already. Now I'm ready for some very new adventures in Kenya. I'll try to write as often as I can. I'll also be trying to get pictures up on my site when I can. Here's my itenerary in case you're interested in seeing what I'll be up to:
