Leavin' on a Jet Plane
I'm currently sitting in a very small, yet sleek and modern, Courtyard Marriott just near the Gatwick Airport in London. It's 3:45 am but we've been up for at least an hour, all thanks to the 8 hour time difference between here and California. I won't lie, that last 10 hour red-eye with a 2 year old was no fun. At all. Somewhere over Boston, I looked at the onboard flight map and thought there was no possible way we would survive 6 more hours--yet God is good and so are some flight attendants who made sure to not bump Audrey when she finally fell asleep.
Today we will fly from London to Paphos, moving 2 more timezones to the east in a 5 hour flight. After a few beautiful hours of sleep, I feel much better about another day of traveling. Audrey's big question lies in the color of our upcoming transportation. Will the plane be blue? Orange? Pink???
I can't wait to get through the necessary discomfort of travel and get settled in Cyprus. I'm sure the next weeks will make a few hours of claustrophobic air travel entirely worth it.
