In Australia, my internet access will be a little spread out, so I won't always be able to update when I write things. This post, for example, was written before our first of three flights, but I'm in Australia right now! More on that later. But now you understand how things will pan out from here on.
A year's worth of meticulous planning, months of 60-hour work weeks, countless hours spent researching and writing emails, and several minutes of sorrowful goodbyes with family and friends have lead me to this.
The game of hurry up and wait.
I've been in the airport since 2pm now. It's 5pm. My plane leaves at 6:45pm. You do the math. I'm definitely not complaining, though. Everything has been smooth so far. Nice and boring. Lots of waiting. Normal airport stuff.
Arlo, Fia (Arlo's Mom), and I got into NYC at about 7am this morning. We had a lovely breakfast, and then walked around the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. It was rainy/misty, and it seemed we shared the whole garden with only a few others. It was so peaceful and relaxing... the perfect morning before a long, long flight.
Waiting...
