And we are off.....

We are denver international airport and waiting to board.  We are flying to Tokyo, where ash will spend two hours in the future. And then we will head to Jakarta, and on sunday we will fly from jakarta to medan, then a 5 hour drive to our lodge in the jungle. 

We are really excited but also not too excited about the long travel times.  We left our house at 10am on friday and get to the jungle around 7pm on sunday. Not quite as long as the trip to zambia but not too much shorter.

Ash is most looking forward to seeing wildlife.  Hopefully we will see an orangatun.  Michael is most looking forward to just being away for 3 weeks.  We are both nervous, michael especially about the logistics and the tour.  Ash is scared of volcanos and leeches.  

We are not sure what our connectivity will be while we are gone but will try to update yall regularly.

In Bali we will doing some beach time plus some bird watching.
