| I am sitting here in the Billings airport waiting to
board the plane to Salt Lake City that will kickoff our trip to Japan.
As I sit here in anticipation for what lies ahead of me, I can’t
help but feel a little nervous about the trip. The nervousness is not
only stemming from the next 28 days that I will spend in a foreign place
to which I have never been, but the 11 to 12 hour flight over the ocean
is also contributing to my anxiety. I have been on airplanes before,
but never for this long of a period of time. The way I see it, more
time for something to go wrong. Yikes!! In spite of all the nerves bothering
me, I am very excited. I know this trip is going to be the experience
of a lifetime that I will never forget and I will carry many great memories
of it with me forever. |
