First time a driver had to drive through Washington, DC to get me to Dulles International Airport.
First time it took 26 hours to get to Copenhagen
First time I was in France
First time I ate at a Parisian cafe (in the airport)
First time I paid for something in Euros (Denmark and Sweden use Krone)
First time I got to use my 5 semesters of French in a real setting
First time my luggage went to San Paulo, Brazil (with no arrival time in sight)
First time I flew Air France
First time I went to a hotel the second time and got the same exact room (yay, Hotel Du Nord)
First time I slept through Dinner on a plane
First time it took THREE planes before they found one working for us to fly on (United Dulles to Paris)
But I’m here, happy and despite dreams of Lady Gaga killing lots of people at Gibbs High School in Washington DC (including that cute guy from Glee!) had a good sleep. I’m wearing a t-shirt, shorts and sneakers in the cold, rainy weather but as soon as the Fotex opens I’ll have an outfit or two and I can drive to work! Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
