We are now down to 4 days before orientation starts. All of the materials and forms have been checked and double checked. We have finally figured out what we are hoping will be a functional international cell phone but that will just add another level of suspense to the trip as we will only know if it works once we are out of the country. Theresa sent us a tentative schedule of our stay in PNG and it is looking like we will be kept very busy. The interns journal arrived earlier this week. I decided to order them from ecosystems this year because they are made entirely from recycled materials. Each journal also has an identification number which allows you to see exactly what your journal is made from, where and when it was made, and how many people were employed to make your journal. Ecosystem is also a US company so all sales benefit US manufacturers. If you are interested in finding out more about this company click here. On a personal note, I was finally able to purchase all of my supplies for the trip yesterday so now I am all ready to go as well. Our next update will be coming to you all as we are leaving on our flight to Sydney next Friday. Katie
