Friday's coming...

By this time tomorrow, I'll be sitting in PDX waiting to board the first of three different planes that will eventually get me to Prague.

PDX to Washington-Dulles
Dulles to Frankfurt
Frankfurt to Prague

Total travel time is about 17 hours including layovers plus the 9-hour time difference means that, according to my watch, I'll be arriving in Prague about 26 hours after I leave Portland. I'm glad that the trip is broken into three flights - otherwise, I think my butt would be tired of sitting!

All the last-minute stuff today but over the past two days, I've had two acupuncture treatments and a Reiki session so I feel good! And I've got a trip to the chiropractor scheduled this morning! Thanks go out to all my "bodywork" people who have helped me get this body in shape, or relatively in shape, for this trip. I've had lots of help - Jowanna and the newest member of her "team", Kathryn, at New Harmony Health, Willie at Cascade Massage, Dr. Bob at Allen Chiropractic along with his awesome staff, the Triple W's, and then there's all my friends (my son is on that list, too) who've supported me through my latest adventure. It's because of all of you that I'm able to leave on this trip tomorrow!

Last night, Mark and Nick took me to Bullwinkles Family Fun Center down in Wilsonville for my birthday. We drove little cars around the track (although I had a dog of a car a couple of times...), drove the bumper boats, and played laser tag with some other people who were celebrating a birthday, too - teams were adults against kids and ADULTS WON! Wooo hooooo! Ok, so I didn't do very good; it was my first time and I don't think I shot at the right things all the time but we had fun. Ate lots of pizza and birthday cake, too. Yum!

Off to get some things done - later!
