Iron Bird

It’s always my routine to listen to “Distant Relatives” Nas and Damian Marley, whenever I’m traveling, that’s still my favorite album to this day. The trip still hasn’t sunk in yet. We landed in Washington, had a 1 hour layover I got a chance to make my final calls in the US. My friend told me “Don’t eat the bread they give you on the plane.” We had a nice smooth take off. It hadn’t occurred to me I haven’t been in a huge iron bird like this since we came from Africa. The huge plane pierces through the skies you can almost touch the heavens. I couldn’t miss any moment of the take off.I sat next to an old couple, the wife asked where I was flying to I said “Uganda” and she said, ‘is that home or you are just visiting?’ I said “it’s home, I just haven’t been in awhile.” While flying I fell asleep I was woken up for dinner and guess what?  yes I chose the chicken, what can I say, Chappelle raised me. I did not eat the bread, somehow after dinner I went back to sleep. I woke up sweating heavily, I felt like vomiting and I wasn’t feeling good at all, so I got up and walked around and soon I was feeling better.We landed in Brussels  7+hours later after leaving Washington, it was already morning. European morning, cold blueish. My feet were hurting from sitting  too long. Now gotta walk on them, maybe I need foot massage lol the African terrain will definitely help with that. As I sit and reminisce about this new chapter of my life, it will be difficult with no doubt, but I think I am ready, I am ready for mama Africa to teach me about what I have forgotten about myself. Now on to the next flight.

It’s today 

In preparation for the big day. I spent all my time yesterday getting all my music files and all the gadgets ready. Didn’t realize my whole night was gone. By the time I went to bed I had only 1 hour and 30 minutes to sleep. Around 1 hour and 15 minutes later my brother was waking me up. you know how that morning sleep feels, that laziness you feel and the bed feels magnetic. YES! I did not want to get up. Anyways 3:45 am we got on the road headed for LAX.I had a yearning though, I didn’t eat breakfast so we decided to stop and get some tea at the gas station. A little while back I stopped drinking black tea because of its acidity, so I always drink herbal teas especially green tea. bedb8675-e693-4322-9ec1-9ccb76041940Herbal teas are usually not too concentrated so what I discovered in my tea journey is that sometimes blending different teas give you such a unique flavor, so I’m always doing this!And finally we are boarding now. Africa see you soon.

Homecoming

The Anticipation

It’s been 18 years since my feet last touched the soil of the motherland. Africa, I miss you. 18 long years!!!

Everyone says it’s changed so much that I might not recognize any of the places I think I knew, some say I might even be scared and miss the luxuries of this California Life. I honestly don’t know how to feel until I land.08EF95D4-B1F0-4BD5-AB25-5346804D6F81There’s been so much complication with my process to board the flight, I had to spend a few hours in a coffee shop today, and no I didn’t drink coffee, I had a “Green Tea” I live to drink herbal teas.Processed with VSCO with m3 presetBut tomorrow I am off to finally see you mama.
