Here we GO!

The international terminal is the BEST.  We're sitting at our gate right now people-watching, writing this blog entry, and trying not to puke from excitement.  There are so many people here speaking so many languages... I could just sit and observe for hours.  How many of these strangers are going on vacation, or going home, or going on an AWESOME ADVENTURE like Kevin and me?!   I'm so excited that I don't even mind having to sit on a plane for 11 hours to Istanbul, then wait 3 hours in that airport, then fly another 9 hours to Bangkok... ugh... maybe I'll just tone down the excitement and sleep all the way to Thailand.  Then I'll get excited!  I'm going to learn to speak Thai, eat delicious noodles, try some stinky fruit, meet lots of people that won't have any idea what I'm saying, kiss an elephant, sweat a lot (ew),  teach some Thai kids, and kiss another elephant

I'm too scatter-brained to say anything else right now.  I should probably do some meditation or breathing exercises or something so that I'll be able to sleep... time to board!

  1. Stop trying to pretend that this is more exciting than going to the Price is Right. Nothing is more exciting than that. Elephant Schmelephant.
