Do you know how heavy 100 pounds is? Well, let me tell you, that's A LOT of luggage. It certainly looked fine when it was sitting in my bedroom. But as I trapezed through the airport I started having second thoughts. Foolish Anne, when will I learn?!
I made it safely to DC and this afternoon 74 trainees will board the plane for Kazakhstan. I guess it is good to travel with so many people who are in the same situation as me, but every one of these flights is heart wrenching. I cried… scratch that… I sobbed yesterday when I left my family. Today I'll probably do it again when I call home right before leaving the US.
I'm excited about where I'm going, but I wish Kazakhstan would have wedged itself right between Mexico and Belize rather than staking claim on that spot of land by Russia and China.
well, at least your comfort shoes don't weigh THAT much!
