But First...a Layover in New York

---

My adventure has officially begun!

For those of you who know how "prompt" I am on a regular basis, you will be happy to hear I was on time (even a little early) for my flight this morning.

Saying goodbye to my mom, dad, and best friend this morning was bittersweet...I will miss them so much but know I will have so many stories to tell them when I return!



I arrived safe and sound in New York. I was lucky to have fairly skinny people on both sides of me on the plane. There wasn't even a battle over who would get the arm rests.

Plus I have found a new hobby: people watching at the airport.

All I can say is...thank goodness for the airport Starbucks! That Venti Iced Hazelnut Coffee was the perfect pick-me-up.



Now I sit here and will get some (lots of) work done until my flight across the pond this evening. Between the readings I have yet to do for this class - thank you SparkNotes - and finishing up some work with my business, I have plenty to do to avoid being bored.



Next stop, first class flight to Shannon, Ireland!
