Well, peoples, we're off on vacation tonight. Got our business class tickets on Cathay Pacific and an amazingly long flight time to enjoy them. (Dubai to Hong Kong-nearly 8 hours; Hong Kong to LA-almost 14 hours.) I'm very tired so I'll definitely be sleeeeepin. We took Brin off to the kennel this morning (in Ajman, if you recall, 2 Emirates away from Dubai). Poor kid. He wasn't too impressed. You might not have thought about this but the dogs even have aircon in their kennels! How posh. He just isn't keen on having to hear all those other dogs, I think. I'm guessin' he'll be pretty happy to see us on the 25th. Well, I'll try to post from another continent at least once. ciao!
