Here we go, here we go, here we go!

And we’re off on the 54 hour trek that will take us to the other side of the world! Today’s itinerary is Des Moines > Minneapolis > Boston. There we stop at Grandma and Grandpa’s and start the kids’ World Cup adventure. Then, 18 hours later starts the Boston > New York > Dubai > Johanesburg leg of our journey.

I didn’t even bother trying to sleep last night. It took me until 11 to finish my work, then I was packing until 2:30 AM when I realized that my worldwide smartphone had gone missing. By the time I had searched the whole house, my store downtown, and my car it was after 4 AM. I decided one hour of sleep was not better than nothing, and sewed my super hero USMNT cape until it was time to head to the airport for our 7 AM flight.

I feel exhausted and exhilirated at the same time. I know I should be tired, but I’m so thrilled that this day is finally here, I can’t settle down to even think about sleeping. Maybe on Minneapolis > Boston.
