I'm off!

Duh duh duh (dramatic music)...the time has come! I'm packed (finally) and ready to leave (not emotionally). I fly out at noon tomorrow and 31.5 hours later I'll arrive in Perth. Well, that's the plan anyway. Your prayers would be appreciated as I make the mad dash to make connections between flights, fly through wintery skies, and collect and check in my luggage multiple times. And of course deal with jetlag, a 14 hour time difference, and complete temperature shift. I'm sure as I finally sit on the plane, relax, and have time to think, I'll be thinking of all of you and how supportive you've been to me on this venture. Thank you all  and the next time you'll hear from me I'll be enjoying summer on the other side of the world!
