All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go.....

no taxi coming, but my mom will be here early in the morning, ready to begin an adventure of a lifetime with me. I'm very excited and trying to not let all of the "I don't want you to go" pleads get to me.

I'm really trying to ignore the "What if your plane crashes?" questions that seem to come about every 10 minutes. And I'm really, really trying not to think about the "What if you get sea sick, plane sick, train sick?" question. THAT would be a bummer.

Here's hoping for the best and expecting nothing less than that!
