Getting ready for a long flight,

---

Twenty hours on a plane is not sounding so appealing right now, I am so ready to just be there. I had forgot what a pain LAX can be. For reading material on the flight from Omaha to LA I decided to bring "The Alchemist" by Paulo Coelho. I have read it before and thought it fitting for my trip. A great story that talks about Santiago's journey, his Personal Legend. Santiago believes his Personal Legend to be a search for treasure. What he finds is that the adventures are the spoils. He finds magic and treasure at his own doorstep and inside of himself.... he finds that life is the journey.

"The boy felt jealous of the freedom of the wind, and saw that he could have the same freedom. There was nothing to hold him back but himself."

I'll probably post again from Hong Kong. I may be delirious by that point.... there is a decent chance I already am.
