The airfare has been purchased!

Hey everyone! Only 109 more days until I depart for my Tanzanian adventure! I can't believe how quickly it's coming up. It seems like it's only been a few weeks since I made the decision to teach abroad and now it's almost here!
I purchased my airfare today so now it feels really real. Here's my itinerary:

8:50 PM (June 26th) - 8:00 AM (June 27th) from Dulles International to Amsterdam
10:20 AM - 7:45 PM(June 27th) from Amsterdam to Kilimanjaro, Tanzania

8:50 PM (August 8th) - 7:00 AM (August 9th) from Kilimanjaro to Amsterdam
1:15 PM - 3:40 PM (August 9th) from Amsterdam to Dulles

I went to a local travel agent to help figure out my flight since it was such a huge distance - I don't know why Southwest doesn't just fly to the Serengeti :) The agent was a huge help! My flight was about $250 and 3 layovers less through him than anything I could find online so I'm super excited!
Next I'll be sending my passport off to get my Visa and then I'll be getting all my crazy shots (Yellow Fever, Ebola??? I guess I'll find out!)
More later...
