We successfully landed in Washington/Dulles and are about one hour from boarding for Kuwait!  It hasn’t been without a bit of unfortunate news as Bill Beck, our Senior Director of Team Travel was unable to fly with us due to an illness, and Fredi Gonzalez has been stranded in Atlanta because of weather.  Plans are optimistic for Fredi however, who will hopefully join us in Kuwait a day later and join the tour in progress.

In the meantime, Larry, Chris, John, Carin, Stef, Christina, Natalie and I are watching the 4th quarter of the NFC Championship game and counting down the minutes until we leave for our 12-hour flight to Kuwait.  Thank you to everyone who sent us your best wishes and positive thoughts over the past fews days.

Next up we will update from Kuwait!
