Frankfurt, Germany, at 1200 - Monday
Day Two of 2012 is shaping up to be another tiring travel day for me as I make my way back to the Middle East. I was unable to sleep on this particular flight from the United States to Germany, some due to the anxiety of leaving my son and still more due to the experience of jumping ahead in time through the miracle of flight. It is lunchtime here in Frankfurt and 0300 where my son is sleeping right now in Washington. It always seems crazy to me, how time travel works.
I leave here in a few more hours and should arrive in the United Arab Emirates at midnight Dubai time. I was not planning on getting a hotel, but it certainly seems very appealing right now! At the least another hot shower at the Terminal 1 hotel spa!
The weather here is familiar in that I used to live about 75 miles away from here in Bitburg, Germany, over 20 years ago. I had forgotten the winters were cold, wet (rainy and snowy), and it is good to be here, if only very briefly.
I miss my son already and cannot wait to see him again this summer!
143, Kaesen.
Good night and good day.
