Well after flying more then halfway around the world, the wrong way, I made it home last week. Ten hours waiting in the Singapore airport before my flight was the pits. Then 12+ hours to Germany, five hour wait, 10+ hours to Denver, then a quick flight to Oakland. A few days to relax then It was back on a plane again to the winter wonderland of Washington state to my father's place for Christmas and my Birthday. I can't wait to see my sister and my step-nephew, I heard he is getting big and very cute. I want my father to play Christmas Carols on the piano like when we were kids, I bet he will love them. It is going to be so nice to be here for his First Christmas.
Well as I write this it's 5:30 in the morning, Normally I would say it is because of my Jet lag that still doesn't have my internal clock completely reset. It can take a while when you are 16 hours off. I am awake because of one of my dad's alarm clocks went of at five am.
It's funny to think that as we are having the winter solstice today (shortest day of the year) my shipmates are having the a much longer day, being that they are so close to the equator, I don't think they really have much of a change of length of day, but it defiantly would be the longest day in Australia. Just a random thought to ponder at 5 in the morning.
Merry Christmas to all.
