Only a few hours more

It's 2 a.m. and Fran and I are up, trying to finish some of the last things to prepare for traveling in a few hours. We get picked up at 9:30 a.m. to go to the Moscow airport. Our flight leaves at 1:25 pm and gets into JFK at about 3:30 p.m. (Yeah ... a two-hour flight .... no wait, there's that darn time difference). We then have a 8 pm flight out of JFK to Denver (5-6 hours) which gets in at about 11 p.m. We then rent a car and try to start the overnight drive to Rapid City (6 hours) and see how far we get before we need to stop and rest.

My sleeping habits are so screwed up, this trip may just get me right back in line and sorted out.

We've packed the baby Benadryl to keep the kids 'comfortable' on the plane.

I think we're going to wish we had bought adult Benadryl.
