No turning back!


So, yesterday I bought my ticket! My travel agent Annie Hung ( no relation to William) hooked me up with a sweet deal on American Airlines between Montreal and Santiago, with only one stopover in Miami.

Last time I was in the Miami airport was for a 6-hour stopover when I was going to Venezuela in the year 2000, when to kill time I went up to the rooftop pool and patio of the very tall airport hotel. ( It sounds a lot nicer than it actually was. The airport hotel rooftop patio has a very nice view of...the runway and the airport parking lot. Breathtaking. )

So now I'm awash in that "Wooh! This is really happening! No turning back! I can't wait to leave!" feeling.

Well, maybe it's more like the "
Wooh! This is really happening! No turning back! I can't wait to leave! But if something horribly dreadful happens before I do, like I get hit by a boat or chop my leg off with an axe, or on the way to the airport a couch has fallen off a truck and is blocking all traffic on the highway and I miss my flight, it's okay! Because I have trip cancellation & interruption insurance and will get my money back if I have to cancel my trip!" Cautiously living on the wild side.
