Well here it is the night before and anticipation is high.  I have my bags packed and waiting to go.  Daniel will arrive sometime around 1pm tomorrow.  Bronda is taking me to the airport about the same time to check in.  We are hoping for business class.  I really want to experience the lie flat seats.  All these years and I have always had a crappy nights sleep.
Ken Hall and I worked out a meeting day in Munich.  We should be able to link up and head south toward the Salzburg area.  What a pretty place in the winter time.  Hoping for a snow covered city.  I will keep up with the days adventures each night.  I know there are lots of wifi places over there.  It may be the next day before a posting appears.  I really do not want to to a facebook post while I'm gone.  Not a safe practice.
It has finally sunk in alittle that I actually retired.  Feeling really good and so ready for a trip.  I saw the little rug rats :) crawling all over today.  They are so much fun to crawl around and wrestle with.  Very cool.
I hope to get a descent night sleep and do my running around in the morning.  The next entry will be at the airport or onboard the plane.
Adieux for now.....
