Six days and we are off

Hi - its Sunday evening the 9th of December 2007. Today we have just got home after a fun filled weekend with Teresa's parents in Wiltshire, On the return trip we called in on a couple of friends in Winchester and we talked about the next project that we are undertaking.
We also discussed setting up this blog! so that friends can pitch in on what we are doing.

Having just checked the spell checker for this I see there is one but I need to remember to use it! well anyone that knows me will I suspect know that spelling is not my number one point so please read this for the feelings and the fun we hope to share and not the grammer.

So what is the project - I suspect all of you know, Teresa and I are going to Rwanda to work in the Kigali Institute of Health. We will be teaching (we think) in a town called KIBUYE on the western boarder. We will be working with he faculty of Environmental health - Teresa teaching Environmental Health Law, and I will be doing Occupational Health.

Now before I type forever I am going to post and see what happens - if this works I will come back and up date with what we are thinking and all the good bits!

You will be sorely missed by Denise and I. We look forward to you returning to work with and motivate us! If you get tempted to stay away we will have to stop your cheese rations. Have a great time with Teresa - but don't forget us. Love Tricia

Steve & Teresa,
I wish you luck on your adventure. I know you will be do some wonderful work and benefit the people you meet in Rwanda greatly.
I agree with Tricia, you will be greatly missed and we all look forward to you both returning safely.
I think this is a brilliant way of communicating your experiences and I look forward to reading your updates.
Take care,
Amanda.

Safe journey on Friday, guys. Look forward to hearing from you, and seeing photos on your blog in the next few months. We'll send a postcard from Ethiopia, and Morocco - will they get there?

Love
Simon and Julia
