All right, I'll be flying into Gatwick in less than 24 hours, arriving at 5 a.m. US time and 10 a.m. UK time.

I don't know when I'll have regular computer access again, so this may be it for a week or so. But I wanted to say goodbye to everyone I didn't get a chance to chat with on the phone and thank everyone for their support and reassurance that I'm "going to have so much fun." I have heard that phrase — I'm not kidding — 1,000 times since I decided I was going to go, and if I hear it one more time before I'm actually in the UK, my head might explode from the anticipated excitement.

If I have half as much fun as everyone says I'm going to, I don't know if any other experience I have the rest of my life is going to top going to Wales. So, literally, I hope I don't have too much fun :-).

But anyway, all my bags are packed, I'm ready to go ... and I'll be back in the US in three months. Until then, keep checking back. I promise to keep up, at least once a week. Muah.
