In just three days we leave!

In three days, on 12/25/15, the three of us (husband Chad, daughter Rachele & I) leave for our three week road trip in New Zealand.  It will be my third trip to the Southern Hemisphere this year, including my third winter and third summer in 12 months.  As always, I am filled with anxiety before a trip after months of planning and worry that something will go wrong.  As always, the others are filled with excitement and anticipation.  I hope by Friday at 8:25 pm as I am sitting on that plane bound for Auckland, I can sit back, relax and enjoy the amazing ride ahead of me.  I'll try to post regularly.
