This is what I'm starting to feel like. The car in the Monopoly game. After just being home from Rwanda only 36 hours, in another 6 hours I'm off to Lamu, an island near the coast of Kenya. It's vacation time, and my Zanzi-buddy Ron just flew in from Lagos where he was doing design and newsroom trainings. We're launching another leg of our Fabulous World Tour--at least of the islands near the coast of Kenya, anyway.
We still can't get over how two Midwestern kids grew up to be kinda-sorta jetsetters. Deep down, a part of me expects to wake up one day and be riding a Metro train to my job at Target or something.
But I've come this far without that happening, so I guess this is my lot, for the immediate future. I'm keeping the engines revved, but am sure I'll need a tune-up eventually.
Umm, is there a mechanic named Idris in the house???
