Good Bye USA

Hello everybody,
Well, I am heading out in like 5 hours. So strange!!!! I just got back from the government medical facility and got a few shots. Staging is finally over, it was a long few days. Everybody in my group seems great...only 3 Cali kids, which surprised me. A few of us went out in full force last night for my birthday and our last night in the states. I love you all and miss you already. Stay safe and keep in touch.
