via IFTTT I’m off then — JFK (to LHR to EBB)

I have my passport, 2 cameras and 5 empty memory cards packed up in Betty (holding on with busted zipper, I couldn’t leave her out of this adventure). Duffle with liquids is checked and KnightRider also sits by my side, ready for departure into the very unknown.

I’ve taken a similar photo in many an airport but rarely with as much nervous, excited, wondrous energy. I am concentrating on gratitude. Thankful, deep breaths fill my lungs, squeezing against my already full heart. I finally understand the phrase “fit to burst.”
