SO EXCITED Only 18 Days Left

Well, there are only 18 days left. Now I feel like I'm in crunch mode.
Talked to AAA and the bank about getting South African currency. It seems like the more I talk to AAA, the more I love them.
I am also looking at what backpack I am going to take for carry on. Our professor told us that we get 1 duffel bag and 1 backpack. So I am going to have to pack light, especially if I want to bring back souvenirs.
I also got a couple other trip supplies today.
I am sort of worried about communication, apparently it is going to be pretty hard to communicate when I get to Lesotho. No cell coverage and no internet. I honestly don't see how people survived back in the day. I have a calling card for South Africa, but so far nothing for Lesotho. Luckily, my professor has to have a SAT phone, and his blackberry will work over there, go figure.
But I am very excited! This is going to be AMAZING!!
COUNTDOWN 18 DAYS!
