We're in Belfast!

    Orientation has been quite good.  Honestly though, I'm kinda sick of talking about our year in Northern Ireland.  I just want to be there and begin to experience it.
    Jess wrote a whole lot about the details of orientation, so I'm not gonna go into it too much.  I think that we've been really well prepared by everyone here, so don't worry about us to much.  We finally got to talk to a former YAV that was placed in Northern Ireland last night.  The whole week there's been someone here for everyone from all the other sites to talk to about there experience in their countries, but no one for us.  That being said, it was a real relief to talk to someone who has physically, emotionally, and mentally walked the same road that we're going to.  She set aside a few of our fears, some false expectations, and basically told us we are going to have an amazing year. 
    I'm gonna get back to packing now.  Skype us if you want to hear more.
