My last night in Hastings!

Tonight is the last night I'll be in Nebraska for three weeks. I'm so excited to be blessed with this opportunity to travel, but a part of me is sad that I'll be missing out on J-Term in Hastings with my friends. Last year's J-term was a great time, but I know this J-term will have a lot in store for me. Our itinerary starts today in five hours (5:00 A.M.) when we meet Dr. Bego behind this political science building. From there we drive to Omaha. We will then fly to Newark, NJ, and then fly from there to Munich, Germany. From Germany, we will have about a two hour flight to Albania! It is definitely going to be a lot of flying and airport time which is already stressing me out. I'm still terrified of flying, even though people constantly remind me it's safer to fly than drive. Once we arrive in Albania, we will have time to recover from our jetlag, since the time difference is seven hours.  The countries we visit will include Albania, Croatia, Kosovo, Montenegro, and depending on the weather, Macedonia. This is going to be a wonderful experience! This blog will be a part of my final assignment, so I just wanted to type a quick post and make sure everything is all set up in order to begin my journey. I would really appreciate any prayers or kind words for a safe trip. See everyone in three weeks!
