Big Day

At the moment I'm sitting at the airport in Vancouver, waiting for the plane that will carry me the greatest distance from home that I have ever traveled.  If I were a little more awake, I'm sure my excitement would be as visible as my curiosity-however I've been drained by a series of long days.

And I have to admit that the excitement of the day is marked by sadness too.  I learned that my grandmother passed away at 3:30 this morning, and it bothers me a little that I have to leave right in the middle of a family crisis.  What else can I do?  She would want me to go.The plane just arrived.  Next time I blog, I'll be in Europe.
