Trip Details

Depart Nashville: Monday, 6:55 a.m.
Arrive NY: 10:28 a.m.
Depart NY: 12:40 p.m.
Arrive Seoul: Tuesday, 5:10 p.m.

Depart Seoul: Saturday, 6:35 p.m.
Arrive Atlanta: Saturday, 6:15 p.m.
Depart Atlanta: 8:13 p.m.
Arrive Nashville: 8:24 p.m.

The time change makes our flight times look so strange! Pretty sure it will wreak havoc on our sleep cycles too. We'll pretty much miss out on Tuesday, but we'll have two Saturdays. We still don't know when we'll be meeting Rory - there should be instructions for us at the guest house when we check in. It will probably be Wednesday morning. Depending on how Rory reacts to us and how our first meeting goes will determine when we actually receive her for good.

It's 7:31 Sunday night. We're all packed up, and I'm going to crash. Here are a few fun facts about our trip.

Number of suitcases: 3
Number of carry-ons: 2
Number of shoes for Brian: 2
Number of shoes for Melissa: 2
Number of shoes for Rory: 4
Number of hairbows for Rory: too many to count
Time we're getting up tomorrow: 3:30 a.m.
Number of Diet Mt. Dews I stashed in the suitcase: 3
Hours we'll spend on an airplane tomorrow: 17 hours, 33 minutes
Number of songs Brian loaded onto his MP3 in preparation for all the emotional videos he thinks he'll upload and edit: 1,642,012
Number of Xanex I've packed to help me sleep: alot

Have a wonderful journey to your new daughter! I wish we still lived in Cookeville. I'd love to be at the airport for your homecoming. Can't wait to see your first photos from Korea.
