Gratituesday: Flying

I love to travel. If you know me in real life, you should at least know that about me. On any given day of the week I’m more than likely on the road, headed somewhere around this beautiful state of Virginia. All of my wedding packages actually include travel anywhere within the state because I enjoy being on the road so much. Of course, what I enjoy the most is the people I am able to visit when I reach my destination(s). It is always a wonderful time visiting with friends and family I haven’t seen in a while.

While I am a big road-trip kinda gal, the truth is, my heart belongs in the air. I don’t get to fly too, too often for work or play, but when I do, I LOVE it. There’s just something about walking through the airport alone with my luggage and laptop ready to power on as soon as I am settled. I feel so grown up, so independent. I am not afraid to sit alone at a local restaurant, let alone one in an airport. I love doing my own thing, whether that’s airport shopping, dining, or catching up on some work in my portable office. Not to mention airplane food. Okay, so it’s not the most delicious. But, come on! It’s SURE to be an adventure no matter where you are flying! Especially if you are on international flights. There’s nothing quite like it.

So, I love flying. And this week I am grateful for the opportunity I have to fly around the country (the world!) both for work and play. Traveling through airports is just as much fun as the things I can do in the town I am on my way to visit!
