Rain vs Sun

It's raining, it's pouring, the old man is not snoring because he is already at work! Today is one of those funny days... then it rains then the sun shines, you put your jacket on and take your jacket off. Today is also the day that I fly back to South Africa - a very long flight back that I mentally need to be prepared for. When you choose to fly somewhere take the shortest direct way when ever possible, trust me (spend the money, it's totally worth it).

This year also marks my 7th year of flying international flights every year, I think except 2005 when I finished my studies. The year of 2007 also brings the most international flights within the same year. I started back in May and flew from South Africa to New Zealand (Auckland), then also May I flew from New Zealand to America (California). Then, in September I flew back to New Zealand. It is now November and tonight I will be flying to South Africa and then December I will be flying back to New Zealand, which makes it 5 flights in total just for this year. Let me just tell you from a woman's point of view or more experience it really messes up your body, apart from jet lag, all the different time zone travel in such short periods make certain bodily functions also disappear until it feels ready to come back again, which is nice but probably not good physically for you.

Well I need to finish packing and preparing cause it is always hectic on traveling days. Please keep me and my family in your prayers as we travel again being separated from each other and then our reunion.
