Well, I am through the frightening and intimidating process of U.S. Customs
and Immigration. I have been deemed clean and safe so I am now
sitting at gate 83, waiting to board my 6:35 flight to L.A. It is sunny
outside and I am excited to see the planes roll by, knowing that I will
soon be watching the clouds roll by underneath me!
Annalyn and I had an unexpected turn of events at the airport. She made
a comment wishing she could come along and I suddenly thought, why not?
I have the money to front her a plane ticket, she has the bare
necessities for traveling (passport, face wash), and she has nothing of
dire importance holding her back. After an hour of seriously
considering this (as well as laughing hysterically, texting multitudes
of people for a poll, and checking into the Aus job situation), Annalyn
and I decided that she would fly out in a week!! I will loan her the
money to pay for her flight, she will do all the necessary research and
visa applications, and I will see her in a week at the Brisbane
airport!! The prospect of having a traveling companion is so exciting
and comforting! I am more confident, less frightened, and less lonely.
I think this will be the best decision we've ever made : )
I board my flight in an hour and, aside from having a nice conversation with a guy who was heading home from Vietnam, I have nothing of excitement to relate. I hope everyone in Victoria is well and I will check in again when I reach Brisbane.
xoxo! Katrina
