Leaving on a Jet Plane

It has been a while since I posted, and I thought I would catch everyone up on what has been happening. I returned home, bymyself, 2 weeks ago. I have been busy getting all of my substitute information together over the last few weeks. I am excited to say I am now officially a substitute in the Harrison District 2 schools, and had my first sub experience last Friday. It was definately a challenging situation and school, but I loved it! I still have not applied to district 11 and 20 because I do not have a physical copy of my sub license, but it has been approved and printed, so I hope it will be waiting at the house when I return from Sydney!

Speaking of Sydney....Kevin and I are leaving tomorrow afternoon for our adventure to Sydney. We fly to LA and wait for 6 hours at the airport before boarding our 747 to Sydney. The flight tomorrow is 15 hours and 33 minutes. I am very apprehensive about this extremely long flight, but I think I will be fine. The nice thing, is that the first part of the flight is during our evening, so it will not be too difficult to sleep. I am also nervous that Kevin and I will be separated again, like we were to and from London last month. I guess all we can do is wait and see what happens. All in all, I am so very excited to go on this grand adventure! I know that I am an extremely lucky gal to be able to see the world like this, and I will be forever grateful for the experience and opportunity!

I will try to keep everyone posted as often as possible. We arrive in Sydney on Friday morning, but with the 17 hour time change, it will still only be thursday afternoon here. I can't wait for our adventure and to be able to share it with all of you! Thanks again for your interest in our travels!
