Flying out

It was a mad dash to get everything wrapped up before heading off to ORD to begin our long flight to Istanbul. Mira was less than enthused as we packed up, but perked up when we dropped her off with Bogey and Chris. She'll spend The first half of the week with them, then with Laura's parents until we come home.

I scrambled to do some final work-things right up to when we boarded the plane, and then we settled in for a 10+ hour flight. We had a short layover, complicated when we got stuck in a holding pattern, so it was a mad dash to the other side of the airport to catch our flight to Rome. We made it in the nick of time, and were pleasently surprised to find our checked bag also made it on the plane in time.

Caty is off to spend spring break in Italy, and Laura and I are going to catch some much needed sleep before our early morning flight to Barcelona tomorrow.

Bonus: Tickled to see what the local news station thinks of our fearless leader.Weiterlesen
