Chris called this morning to let us know that his unit is now in Camp Virginia in Kuwait. It's a 20-minute bus ride to Kuwait International Airport. That's all that stands between him and a plane to the U.S. - a bus with the windows covered by curtains, and, I'm guessing, a whole bunch of U.S. military-sized red tape.
He said Camp Virginia is very nice - phones and computers are free there and they have a McDonald's. It certainly sounds better than the last base they were at. They will probably be there until mid-week. He says he won't really feel like he's coming home until he's on the plane, but he sounds pretty happy already.
If we had known an actual return date, we would have hung one of those paper chains we used to count down to Christmas with, but just check back here. I'll let you know when they're on their way. Woo hoo!
love to all,
Linda Sophia
