Aly,
In just a few hours you will be on your way home. You must be having mixed emotions, given bittersweet nature of your situation. I always get this feeling from traveling -- sorry to be ending a trip and the adventure, happy to be returning home -- even when I have been away only a few days. So take the time to savor the emotional counterpoint. I am sure that there will be a way to incorporate these feelings into the novel. And you can share these on your blog as well.
Love,
Dad

So I am in Nairobi checking my email before i fly out. I said goodbye to half the group thismorning and only four others will be coming home with me on the group flight but if my mom and dad show up ON TIME for the first time ever they can meet two of them, as the other two will be extending in Europe. Last week in Kenya was rough, final exam, presentations, ISP talk. We stayed at a convent and we all felt as if we were in some weird rehab facility. Thank you all for reading my work, remember that it is a rough draft of a first draft so... sorry for typos and such. I can't wait for my mexican food, nor my computer. Nor my kittty kitty mulder cat. I did cry earlier and will again when i have to say goodbye to rachel and annie and later Egan I think it is fitting that egan will arrive at JFK with me, and I hope MY PARENTS ARE THERE ON TIME TO MEET HIM AND LEIGH. 4:40 it lands. I expect you there at landing time and not at "what you think it will take to get out of customs" time. Nairobi is intense, but fine, no robberies yet, watch me speak too soon. I will see you all soon, love from Kenya in my final hours. Salama na upendo, peace and love, Asante sana kwa kila kitu. Aly
