Less than 24 hours to go...



This time tomorrow we'll be somewhere over the Atlantic... wow.

Lindsey and I are both students at Tufts Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine in Massachusetts and will be traveling from June 7 through August 8.

In Cardiff, we will be working in a conservation genetics laboratory with our mentor at Cardiff University. We will then travel to Kenya with our mentor to assist with his black rhinoceros research in collaboration with the Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS). Most of the time we'll be dung hunting, but we're hoping to participate in some of the veterinary operations as well to collect blood samples for our own research.

Our flight leaves at 9:15 pm, I guess I should finish packing.
