9 hours 40 minutes to Lift-off

Hi everyone:
I am so excited I can hardly contain myself. I have packed and unpacked and packed again. I am done trying to think of ways to save weight. Short of losing 5 lbs myself in the next 12 hours.

Here is a picture of my pack all laid out...again.

And another attempt at using the selfie stick which sent me into a fit of giggles when it was all done. The selfie stick has to make the cut.

I am beyond grateful for this opportunity. This is an adventure I only dreamed of 5 years ago and to have it actually coming true now is nothing short of amazing.

I did revise my saying "If I can walk 15km, I can walk 20km and if I can walk 20km I can walk 25."  My friend, Martin and I walked with a group of friends a couple of weekends ago and I had a total of 22 km when I was done for the day (as Avro and I had walk 5km early that morning). So the new saying is "If I can walk 15km, I can walk 20 and if I can walk 20 km, I can walk 25 with the help of Tylenol."

My next post will be from Europe. So we will all see what happens next.


Thank you all for your well wishes, thoughts and prayers, it means so much to me. You are all in my thoughts and prayers too and I will have a long list requests when I get to the foot of St James.


Love Lauralee
