This is it...passport in hand!

I get up in four hours to begin the journey of a lifetime!

My other blog http://leehighschool.blogspot.com has a clickable map of my journey.

Thursday - Houston to Los Angelas
Friday - LA to Frankfurt, Germany then to Almaty, Kazakhstan
Saturday - Almaty to Dushanbe, Tajikistan

3 days of plane rides, luggage and hotels, with my two future new friends

I got four bags I'm hauling, atleast 150 pounds. I got it dispersed for the US flight so no bag is over 50lbs. Before Germany I'll redistributed to maybe get down to two heavy and two light! My big bags can go upto 70 for international.

When I get on the last flight, I have to pay $1 per pound for over 44 lbs total.
That fairly cheap freight cost for what I'm bringing!

Over 1/2 my weight I'm hauling is actually to leave in country!
