Howdy All,
Looks like you all kept yourself busy in my absence! I made it home yesterday morning at 8 home by 12. It was a 24+ hour journey which I was lucky to make. Someone apparently gave some guy my boarding pass out of JFK as I was leaving for South Africa. They cleared it up and I boarded without issue however unbeknownst to me they cancelled my return trip. So, Friday morning, Lesaya (Chris' wife) and I battled for a seat for me to get to Johannasburg. She actually stepped back to let me have her spot so that I could have enough time to get a seat to the US. Luckily, we all made that plane and her and I spent the 5 hour layover waiting in line to get it all cleared up in Johnasburg. I got on the plane after being the first one selected for the "full security search"- yup the ole full pat down and hand search of the baggage. I should have expected that.
Ahh.. but the trip was refreshing and exciting. Lots of relection occurred. I will post the high points and some pictures for you all in the coming days once I down load the pictures. In the meantime, I am going to try to kick this jet lag.. which is kicking my butt. I slept from 2pm yesterday to 8 am this morning!.. I think tomorrow, I may actually be on time for work.....:) May miracles never cease! Can't wait to catch up with you all and tell you of my adventures in person. Thanks for all the emails and postings! _love polly

hey girl! Glad you made it home in once piece - sorry we didnt get to catch up today (Sunday) - I am feeling so damn miserable. I'll be staying home tomorrow from work. Its worse than i had anticipated. Anyway - call me when you get a chance.
You gotta love that full on check to see if you are the terrorist. I was flying home from Barcelona and in Paris as I was boarding I was chosen for the pat and wand treatment after having to remove my shoes which had made it through 2 metal detectors and x-ray before I even got to the gate. I got to go from being one of the first to board to being the last.
