We're did all those things to help us change time by 5-6 hours (depending on daylight savings dates in Eastern Europe). Went to bed late last night; up early this AM; taking medications later than usual, etc. But, truthfully, the excitement of finally reaching today would have gotten us up early no matter what :).Final last minute check of documents and to be sure that we packed all of those necessities (that we could buy when we get there if we miss something, but.....). Ellen is taking us to the airport late this morning. We decided to get there at least the 3 hours before take-off that is recommended. We'll check-in - bummer that I couldn't do that yesterday like I do for domestic flights; international flights require ID checks with passports as part of the check-in process. Although it's a long shot, my plan is to tell everyone, with whom we have contact, that we're celebrating our 50th anniversary in hopes that we get an upgrade (not likely) or, at least, a free drink. Of course, drinks are still free on international flights so that one is a given :). I was able to book good seats on the first flight and was so glad that I did that a long time ago...when I checked last night all seats were full. And so we're off!
