And we're off!

Well, we're on our way. We made it through the check-in process and are getting aboard our Boeing 777-200LR/F.  If you look closely, you'll see all of us waving to you out the last window!  No, not really, but this is the type of plane we're on. 

If you are really into it and want to follow along live on our flight, you can view real-time progress at

This is our actual plane, home for the next 12 +/- hours! 

That last picture is specifically for George's mom!
