2:17 a.m. Ohio Time - 8:17 a.m. Belgian Time - Somewhere Over the Atlantic

Wow... wow! WOW!

It's amazing what a little bit of time and distance will do to you! Here I sit on a very comfy plane with two open seats beside me. I've been on this plane for 6 hours already and still have about 2 more to go. This trip has truly been a trip of sitting on unmoving airplanes! :-) 2 hours in the Columbus airport onboard a plane to Philadelphia, and then another hour in Philadelphia sitting on board the plane in an airplane trafic jam. :-) Everybody is quiet and great though... even the little ones. I've heard no complaining on either flight, and the kids are quiet and cute. One little boy was roller skating up and down the aisle's at 1 a.m. :-) Another little kid has a voice like Keri... in my half-dozed state I pretended it was Keri. Hmmm... I wonder where I can adopt some little siblings in Brussels?!
Everything on the plane has been smooth. I've gotten up and walked a couple of times, but mostly just sat in my chair, listened to music, and tried to sleep. I don't recall falling asleep, although I tried for hours, however there is a big time gap that I can't explain between 1 and 2 a.m., so apparently maybe I did sleep. :-) I woke up with a jolt, and opened up my window to see, with a shock, that it was sunrise! At 1 a.m. when I last looked out my window, it was PITCH BLACK. How crazy and amazing is that?! As I look out my window I se blue blue sky and a layer of lots of clouds beneath us... way, way beneath us. I can't even see if there is an ocean below us, but I'll trust it's still there! My little 1 hour catnap re-energized me momentarily, but I'm going to need more than that to make it through the day, so I'm going to have to leave you with this for now....

You know the drill... THANK YOU and LOVE YOU!!!
