What a cool place - to see harvesting of natural rubber was really cool - our first attempt at leaving a CofC mark (the flag)
We are a group of students from the College of Charleston in South Carolina committed to making a difference in global society. Bonded by this common goal, we are traveling together to Cameroon, Africa over Spring Break 2013 to deliver 3,000 notebooks and 1500 educational care packages to children.

The Adventure Begins
Today after a great breakfast with friends of Patrick and his daughter we had a briefing and loaded our cars for the travel to our home base, the Peptenoun Plantation near Bafoussam. We are excited to finally see what the country is all about - we are still working to finalize our logistics as we got word that our container is still "stuck" in customs. We are going to learn to adjust at take it all in of course. Things do not work like in the US.

Making Our Last Leg
We traveled welled on the very last leg of our trip - plenty of kids on plane to give us a sense of chaos. Arrived safe in Douala with all luggage in hand.
Quick Stop in Paris
All is well and of course there is always time for shopping in Paris - can not wait to start our work in Cameroon
