(For days, Edward Sharpe and the Magentic Zeros' "Home" was stuck in my head...)
After about 20 hours of flying time (14 hours DXB-IAD, 5 hours IAD-LAX), I'm finally home! Mom was waiting for me at the airport and I think we were both so happy we almost cried. Good thing the luggage carousel was there to distract us :)
I had dim sum for my first meal back and it was incredible; Oceanstar in Monterey Park is pretty much the best place ever! I am now getting used to a few weeks of cushy living - it's definitely an adjustment: My first night back, I woke up thinking I was either late for something or trapped somewhere - I simply didn't know where I was. In the dark, I groped for my purse and started trying to find a way out. Luckily, I chanced upon the light switch and realized I was home. Really weird!
Anyway, I've got Israel, Jordan, Dubai, and The Kindness of Strangers to update you all on and then I'll give the blog a rest for a bit since life in the US isn't all that interesting :)
Thank you so much for following me in my travels so far!
