Blogging world

I've just haphazardly entered the blogging world...it was almost too easy. I thought I would look into what was involved, and all of a sudden it says to start posting.
Well, in 18 hours I will be aboard a plane bound for Addis Ababa. There's still a last minute trip to Home Depot to complete, and of course the dreaded weighing of the bags...apparently Ethiopian Airlines is very strict about their baggage allowance. Don't they know that a lot of people are going there for an extended time and need a few comforts from home?!
Well, my next post will hopefully be from another continent. We'll see how much the blogging world likes me over there!
