Groundhog Day / Twilight Zone


In nine days we will be en route to Queenstown, New Zealand. It's going to be an incredible adventure, and it's also going to be a crazy long flight! 19 hours. The same as our trip to South Africa, but we're headed to the opposite side of the world.


The wildest part about this fantastic voyage is that we will have NO March 9, 2008... EVER. We cross the dateline as we fly, backwards on the way there, which jumps us from March 8 to March 10. Then on the flight back, we will have TWO March 16, 2008. That's right. Groundhog Day, Bill Murray, Punxsatawney Phil, the whole gang.


It's just been on my mind lately and I thought I'd share. No March 9 for us. Two March 16. Bizarre!

Lucky for you March 8 isn't your anniversary or your birthday!! So jealous of your trip "down under!" Have a great time!
