Flight, Airport, Flight, Airport, Flight, Airport...

We are 2/3s of the way through our 35 hour transit day. Our flight from Sydney to LA was very slow, but thank goodness for the individual movie screens. We don't know how we would have survived without them. Some of us slept, but most of us struggled since it was the middle of the day in Sydney. We are now in Salt Lake City, Utah, admiring the snow capped mountains - that is, only those of us awake. Half of the team is sprawled on the airport floor catching a nana nap before our next flight. Oh, and I'm pretty sure that the next plane fits our team...and ONLY our team! It's a bit small for our comfort. Then we will spend the night in Fargo, hopefully catching some zzzzz's so the next morning we have lots of energy as we head to our training site, Thief River Falls, and meet our host families (something we have been waiting for for a long time)!
