We are going to Morocco!
Our flight leaves at 8am from the airport in Jackson on Monday morning. We'll arrive around 4pm (time in Jackson) on Tuesday (about 10pm in Morocco). For the first week and a half of our trip, we'll be in Casablanca learning about culture and some basics in Arabic so that we'll be able to get taxis, order food, and so Ashley can find the bathroom. Just so you know, we'll be in Morocco from May 19th - July 19th, and then we'll hop over to Kenya until we get back to Jackson on August 1st.
We plan on updating this blog at least once a week, but we'll send you an email with the link so you can copy & paste it into the address line of your web browser. If you have any questions or words of encouragement, please send all emails to benjamin_mangrum@baylor.edu or ashley_mangrum@baylor.edu.
We are grateful for our friends and family, for the questions you ask and the support you give. We'd love to hear from you throughout the summer. Please continue to think about us as we journey.
