Final preparations for Tanzania

Let's go! Final preparations for Tanzania

Last Tuesday we had our last rehearsal with some of the adults coming with us on our journey. Together we rehearsed some classical pieces. Afterwards we got some important pieces of information sorting out the room distribution and some open questions.

Now we have to pack our bags- but no more than 24 kg, otherwise it's going to be expensive. But what needs to go into the suitcases? Luckily enough all of us got a packing list with all important items on it - except for the personal things which everybody has to think of him/herself. Everything should be ready by 8 p.m. on Tuesday  because we then have to hand over our luggage to Christi. Unfortunately he is not coming with us and has therefore offered to take our luggage to Frankfurt airport in the car, so that we don't have to carry it with us on the train.

We meet at 3.30 p.m. on Wednesday and are then taken to the train station in Reutlingen by some parents. From there we will first get the train to Stuttgart and then to Frankfurt.

Our flight to Dubai is leaving at 8.20 p.m. We will have to wait for 4 hours in Dubai until we fly on to Dar es Salaam. As soon as we arrive in Dar es Salaam we will start a telephone chain to let everyone at home know that we got there safely.

If you want to know how we go on from here, you can have a look at our homepage from time to time. We will write some reports and show pictures for those we have left behind at home.
