The Take Off

Yesterday our flight took off at 8:40 pm after an hour's delay. The girls and I were all so worried about making our flight to Frankfurt so we asked the flight attendant if they would hold the flight to Germany. She said we would be fine and that we would make our flight if we hurried. I was skeptical but the girls seemed confident so I went with it. Come to find out, as we're landing in Toronto, they announce that we'll need to get to a desk because we had missed out flight and we had a hotel room for the night. Bummer. On the plus side, we got to sleep in a bed rather than an airplane seat. Tonight, we'll leave at 4:30 pm and get to Frankfurt in seven hours. We'll have a seven hour layover (boring) and we'll finally take off for Vietnam! I just can't wait to finally get there.

Lots of love from Toronto

The Final Countdown

We're down to 18 days until Vietnam!! At the moment I am just struggling to get through finals. Do you know how hard it is to try to study for exams and write papers when all you want to do is start packing and shopping for your trip? Motivation levels are down to zero right now. Hopefully I can get through the next couple of weeks...
