I am packing up my bag. I am double checking that my passport is safely packed in my carry on bag. I am making a list and checking it twice to make sure I don't forget anything important.

Bright and early tomorrow morning I will be enroute to Istanbul! I am so excited by this trip - it is dream come true!

I will be back in front of a computer on September 24th - but you may not hear from me until the 25th. I will be dealing with some serious jet lag.

Please think safe flying thoughts for me throughout the trip. I would appreciate it greatly.

Until Next Time....
