On the way!

Grace and Sam inspired me with their Costa Rica blogs. And enough other people asked me if I would be posting pictures, etc. from my trip down under that I decided that maybe I should do a blog of my own. So here I am, at the Delta Sky Club Lounge (thank you, Amex, for the day pass!) getting everything all set up. First leg of my trip... so far, so good! I have about 2 1/2 hours before they start boarding the flight for Sydney.

I'm really excited! After months of planning and looking forward to this trip, I can't believe that it's actually here! At the moment, my biggest concern is getting some sleep on the flight. It's 14 hours, and I arrive in the morning Sydney time, so ideally I would stay up for a few hours and then sleep for the last half (or so) of the flight. Wish me luck! I did buy one of those "Skyrest" pillows that sit in your lap, so I'll be posting a review.

Woohoo! On the way!
