Portland/Seattle/Chicago/Amman/Cairo: Day 1

Well, Day 1 has nearly arrived.  We begin by flying out of Portland in the morning, and after four airplanes and three layovers, we arrive in Cairo sometime Tuesday night (their time).  Three cheers for iPods, ay?  : )

So, yeah, I think I'm ready.  I peaced out of SoCal on Friday and have been up here in the Portland area enjoying family time for the last couple of days.  The newest development with niece Toby is that she says, "Nuk nuk" (ala Curly of the Three Stooges).  Pretty awesome.  And Clover informed me that my hair is most definitely brown, not red.  Good to know.  : ) 

And I guess that's it for now.  Might be a while before I post again (you just never know when you're traveling), but I suspect that next time I do, it'll be from somewhere many hours by air away from here.  Here's to hoping for an aisle seat....  : )

Well...you missed a great Monday morning at the office. I arrived to a cup of coffee waiting for me at my desk! Andy delivers! And it was a caramel latte...how did he know...? Here's to your flights! And take some pictures for goodness sake...I want to be able to photoshop myself into one in front of the pyramids...

Tuesday...Shan wai you shan. This piece of wisdom from March 4 says "Beyond this mountain, there is always another." If that doesn't give you hope, I don't know what will. :)

35 minutes to go on Wednesday. Something so ridiculous happened at the office today I can't even post it on your blog...it wouldn't be prudent. :)
