This is it. I'm finally ready to go and will be leaving for Heathrow airport in less than half an hour! My bag is near to bursting point with all my kit after a battle with it earlier this morning to shove in those last few wildlife books that I was determined to bring. I'm kitted out in comfortable travelling clothes, walking boots and my so-called 'chimpanzee chasing hat'. My mum bought me this hat for my birthday after deciding that if her daughter was going to spend her life studying chimpanzees then she needed to look the part!
I am feeling slightly nervous, but it is mainly a feeling of excitement that overwhelms me. I will soon be on my way towards Uganda and the chimpanzee chasing adventure that I have long dreamed of. Semliki here I come!
