Weary traveler (almost 48 hours of travel!)

I returned from Romania on June 27th, 2010. The flights home were smooth and I met many nice people. During the Bucharest to London flight, I visited with a man from Romania. He was on his way to South Africa for the World Cup. On the flight from London to Dallas, I sat next to a girl who was returning to the states after spending two weeks in Zambia with the orphans (it had been her third trip to Africa). We enjoyed discussing our kids and the places we had visited. :) From Dallas to Memphis, I talked with a man who was on his way home from Nevada. He learned about Romania and I learned about his family. Traveling alone has its good points; I always meet plenty of interesting people. :)

I went to the doctor the following day because I was definitely not getting any better. I was diagnosed with a double ear infection (no wonder my ears hurt during the flights!) and bronchitis. I stayed home all week resting and eating good food. I'm not 100% better yet, but I have returned to the land of the living. :)
