On my way

I'm writing to you from the Chicago O'Hare airport with very bloodshot eyes - I only got 2 1/2 hours of sleep last night, but I'm trying to stay awake until I board my flight to Paris in a few hours. I arrive in Paris around 8:45 AM, so sleeping on the plane will be ideal for warding off jet lag. As long as I don't pass out in the terminal, I think I'm good to go! :-)

I am super excited about this trip!!!! I will be spending 2 days in Paris, then three weeks in Morocco, then 9 days in Egypt before heading back to Paris and the U.S. What an amazing life I have!

Not sure if I will be able to charge my laptop while in France because I don't have the correct power adapter. But in Morocco I will have wireless access for at least the first two weeks and I'll be sure to update my blog often with pictures and stories.

Thanks to everyone for the encouragement and support - especially my dear husband who is staying home with our "kids." I love you, Buddy!

I'll be talking to you from across the pond....
