This is It

The swearing-in ceremony was a bit like a typical American graduation ceremony. 
It got started late, important people made speeches, our group repeated the oath, 
we were presented with certificates, and then we danced for the crowd. 
Here are a few pictures to wet your palette:

Meg, Abby, Me, & Uncle Jamil at fancy dinner a few nights ago.
Hanging with cousins Ida & Binta during last moments in training village!
twin feet praying at Koriteh, the end of Ramadan
I was nominated to say Christian prayers at the beginning of the ceremony
"I, Kathryn Wright, do so solemnly swear..."

Catherine, Katherine, Kathryn. That's right.
