Half-way there
We'll we've made it half way, landing in Frankfurt a little while ago. The trip so far has been uneventful, if a little tedious. We were stuck in the middle of the center row for the 7.5 hour flight. I couldn't feel my legs for at least half of that time. Now we're just biding our time until our next flight. Luckily these larger flights are equipped with movie monitors at every seat, with a variety of choices, plus a trip monitor that told us exactly where we were, our speed and even the temperature outside the cabin. At 37,000 feet it was -94F! Our next leg is supposed to be even longer; I might poke my eye out with a pencil just to have something to do.
Next stop, Bangalore.

Jeff(Ponatoski) passed along your blog link to me, and reading so far brings back some of the best memories of my life. I empathize, we were 15 hours from LAX to Taipei and it was excruciating. Can't wait to see pictures of you as a family. It's a moment that doesn't disappoint. :)
