Getting ready

Thanks so much for looking at this blog. I'm getting ready to drive to Philly with my dad in four hours. I've been slightly nervous for the past couple of days, because:

this is my first overseas flight,
my first trip to another country (even Canada)
and my first time out of the state of Pennsylvania for more than two weeks.

I'm leaving at 10:40 and arriving at Heathrow airport in London around 6:00am our time -- there's a five hour difference. Hopefully I won't be too busy to write when I arrive. We'll see what happens...
