We're leaving tomorrow morning! I'm pretty excited. I've been away from Minnesota for 16 months. That's easily the longest time I've ever spent away from home. I'm looking forward to everything.
We've flown to a lot of places in this last year and a half. Wherever we go we always have to wait in the foreigner passport line – and that's always the longest line. We're finally going somewhere we can wait in the short line. I like going to new places and seeing new things, but sometimes it's nice to hand my American passport to American security and have them say "welcome home".
