Here is a little disclaimer for those of you new to blogs or just tuning into my travel stories for the first time.

Something magical somewhere in the sky
I just witnessed the most beautiful & magical thing I've seen in my life. I'm high above the clouds somewhere between Toronto and L.A.. I think I have another hour before we land in L.A. but I'm not 100% sure.

I'm ready and waiting...
I thought the saying "Hurry up and wait" only applied to the film industry, but I can now confidently say that it valid for most things in day to day life. I say this because I'm sitting at my gate 2 hours before my flight leaves. Better to be early than late I suppos[...]
