Arrived home last night around 10 after, something like, 24 hours of travel, 20 of it in the air. Guess I'm of the odd kind in that I love to fly...doesn't bother me in the least, especially when there's plenty to do. I watched 4 movies "Doubt", "Body of Lies", "Slumdog Millionaire" and "My Best Friend's Girl". Also caught an episode of "Mad Men" in addition to entertaining myself with wordsearch puzzles and video solitaire and blackjack.
At times, while in Dubai, I found myself saying, what the hell are you thinking? OMG you're halfway across the globe...ON YOUR OWN! I would start to get all freaked-out and then I'd need to talk myself back down from all the catastrophic thought. What helped me then and still now is when people tell me how inspiring I am and how impressed they are with my ability to travel alone. Believe me; I don't set out to impress anyone. This is just something I do. Can't totally explain it either especially when there's still fear. Nothing at all cavalier about it.
All photos have been posted here. Will periodically update this blog on stuff...just stuff as it hits me so check back now and again when you feel like it.
Enjoy!
