On our way...

We left for the airport at 5 am. We knew it was going to be a LONG day but we couldn't really imagine how long as none of us had traveled internationally prior to our trip. Half asleep, Lisa, Julie and I met up in the ticket line. Immediately there were problems. First Lisa's suitcase was too heavy, while her second bag had extra room so the receptionist made her repack her bags in front of a long line of very impatient travelers. Once we made it through security, Lisa got coffee which she soon after spilled all over the connecting tram between terminals, filling the air with the scent of Starbucks and sending a river of liquid by the feet of other admittedly good sports. I was beginning to like Lisa already!
