"A" for "Away"

Let's just say that this whole 'relocating to another country' business is the most long-winded, tiresome, and at times frustrating thing I've ever had to involve myself in. But alas, at long last I have my air ticket in hand and a big fat smile on my face {and if my heart had a face, it would be smilling too.} I am set to depart on September 1st, and my flight route goes something like this:
Durban ---> Dubai ---> San Fransisco ---> Redding
In total, I will be in transit for about 30 hours, and I'm sure by the time I step off that last flight, I will be stupidly tired and in 'moody mode.' 

I am ridiculously excited to step on board that Emirates flight, and am especially happy about my baggage allowance of 46kg's {although I know I will still be sitting on my suitcase when it comes time to try zip that puppy up. Fun, fun, fun.
