And so my adventure begins.
I'm off to Thailand starting tonight. My plane leaves at 1:45AM - technically tomorrow - and I haven't packed a thing. Typical Liz. I'll admit, it's the first plane ride I'm a bit nervous about. I've heard the ride can be bumpy at times over in East Asia.
But I'm really thinking about seeing Fern again! I'm so excited to hug her and see how she's grown up in the last year. She's a university student now! And we'll be going around from temple to temple, seeing the sights. Hopefully I'll get used to the heat sooner rather than later. But knowing me, I'll forget to drink up and leave myself dehydrated. Also, typical Liz.
I'm determined to bring back lots of little gifts. Did someone say Christmas shopping? Oh right, I did actually. So, expect something cute or exotic or both for a present this year. For those of you who normally receive a Christmas present from me..... Just because I'll be able to buy cheap things for people, doesn't mean I'll suddenly start sending you a present. Plus, do I have your address?
I'm getting off track. I'm nervously excited and thrilled not to have to be at work. Many are jealous of me, but I will appease them with brilliant photos, funny stories, and perhaps a chotchky or two.
Wish me luck! See you when I get back!
