Technically I had Thursday off of work but I wanted to go in to finish up a few more things and make sure everything was good before I left. I'm very grateful to have coworkers that will cover for me when I'm gone and for my boss who is very understandable and willing to work with me. I finished up and said my goodbyes. I then headed down to Sodalicious to get my last JoJo's Mojo for two whole weeks. At least I didn't have to wait five weeks to get one like Mom... I came home and finished packing everything up. After a little emotional breakdown from pregnant Jess, we packed up the car and headed up to the airport. Thanks to my aunt Tam and friend Blaine for taking us up. We said our goodbyes, checked in, and went through security. We got some food at Smashburger (flash back to my last trip when I did the same thing). I put my lovely compression socks on and we boarded.
After about nine months of constantly having to do homework and not really having anytime to myself, I was finally able to read a book for enjoyment and it was so nice! I read this three book series while on the trip about a retired American spy that travels to India, Egypt, and Greece in search of ancient jewels. It was such a good series and I really enjoyed actually reading a book for pleasure versus for school.
We survived the long flight and airplane food and landed in Paris for our layover. We had a short layover and then headed to Venice.
Traveling is never the fun part of going on trips but it is necessary. I did discover a new way to fly though, I'll have to try it out next time.
Ta ta for now!
