Permits Acquired!

Today we received official word that yes, we will be able to dig. I'm leaving on Sunday along with 3 other students, and meeting our director in Cairo on Monday. We'll fly to Luxor, and after a one-night stay in Luxor, head on down to Edfu. The dig season has been extended to December 10th to compensate for the delay at the beginning. I'm still so excited though!

Now if only I should shake this cold before I leave...
