This will be my last pre-trip entry. This afternoon I leave for NYC, and after spending a night having dinner with my Aunt and stopping in to see my nieces and nephew, I leave Tuesday morning for Thailand! Wow!!
It mostly hasn’t sunk in yet — I’ve been on an incredible deadline and just finished my work at 2AM (how was the Super Bowl? I missed it). I have one more small piece of work to do now, then I’ll have a few hours to pack.
Kevin Pickhardt lent me his noise cancelling headphones for the plane trip. I’ve never used them but he swears by them on his trips to New Zealand.
For those who are inclined to visit this blog while I’m away, I’ll do my best to post messages and especially photos when I have access. I’ll have email access some of the time too, and text messaging when I’m in range of a signal.
So that’s it! I hope everyone I know has a wonderful few weeks. See you all soon. Andy
Andy,
Although i’m not looking to 17 days without you, I am so excited for you. I’m going to not only stalk your facebook.. But I will be stalking your blog because the chances of me ever getting enough courage (or enough money with my high paying social work job) to go to thailand are slim to none. But I will live outrageous live events through you! I really hope you get a chance to post pictures and messages along the way so us little people in rochester get a taste of something beautiful… besides your face :o)
Love you.. please be safe..
–Jessica

As I look at the clock this morning I think you have arrived in Banghkok. I hope the trip wasn’t too exhausting. I remember those long flights to Asia. Say hello to Michael and have a wonderful, wonderful time.
Love, Mom
