I write this post from the airport. Jenny (travel companion) and I are such internet junkies that we splurged on the $7 to use the internet. Anyways, I'm always amazed at how much travel wears me out. I'm not even 12 hours into my travel and I'm ready to go back home. Traveling also reminds me how much I like home. I love seeing new places, but nothing beats the feeling of my own bed and my own couch. Now don't get me wrong, I'm excited to travel to a new country and meet new (and old, happy I mentioned you now Andy?) friends. But for some reason, I'm really nervous about this trip. For one, I"m tired (2 hours of sleep will do that to you). Secondly, I don't know what this summer has in store. I fluctuate between excitement at the unknown adventures and terror for the unknown failures. This is the first time I've tried to work overseas, we'll see how well it goes.
I don't know how Andy traveled abroad for a whole year! I'm nervous about 8 weeks! I should be nervous at all. I've travel thousands of miles and I have worked in places far from home. My entire life has been about moving from one place to another. I've overcome nervousness before, so I should be able to do it this time too.
Well, since I have an internet connection, I should take some time to work on some chemistry before I leave. Please email me if you get the chance and keep me up to date with your life. I will definitely keep you up to date with mine. :-)
Before I go, here is a picture of the sun through our amtrak lounge window.

I'm really going to miss you but I hope you and Jenny have lots of fun. You should really get some sleep though. :)
