Well, here we are at that time of the year again after having collected, stored, washed and packed hundreds of fleece jackets that have been collected from Massachusetts to New Jersey and even as far away as San Jose, California! We also have 4th graders from our local elementary school who went the extra mile and collected many boxes of much needed school supplies that will be distributed among remote village schools high in the Himalayas. This has been a massive effort on the part of many individuals who have eagerly embraced the work of The Himalayan Project and I am filled with gratitude for all of their commitment and hard work........thank you, thank you, thank you!
It really is a logistical nightmare to transport 22 body size duffel bags to the airport and check them all in so I hold my breath until that is accomplished. Date of departure is February 18th and date of arrival in Kathmandu is February 20th. With the 101/2 hour time change and LOTS of wait time in London and Delhi, I will be a zombie when we touch down but the adrenaline will be pumping.......let the games (or should I say trekking) begin!!!!
