Last night at home

The suitcase lies open at my feet, stuffed with all sorts of clothing. There are still things to pack, but I'll wait until my little girl is asleep - right now she's quite unhappy that Mother's going away for a month. I've tried to teach her to use MSN, and hope I'll get the chance to talk to her across the miles.

Tomorrow night we'll be at the airport hotel, since the plane leaves so early we would have had to travel at night to get there otherwise. We'll do another rehearsal of our presentation to see what else we need to cut out. Our rehearsal on the 27th was an eye-opener - we had to cut the thing by about two thirds! Well, we knew it was too long, we just didn't quite realise by how much. That's what happens when four ambitious ladies get together to do something, I suppose. The Rotary Club of Nasr City I hope will be kind to us, hosting our first presentation on the night of our arrival - that's on Wednesday!

It will be great to finally meet all these people who have spent so much time planning for our visit. We're on our way!
