It's a long trip and yeah I'm heading in early but I leave for the wonder of GenCon and gaming in 3 hours.

soon it's time to get on the bus to get on the train to get on the plane to get to New Zealand to get on a plane to get to Houston and then get on a plane to get to Indy

I leave here on Friday at 1 am and arrive at the hotel estimated time of Friday 9 pm. in local times.

this is one very long Friday.

see you all soon!

Good luck, Brad!

I've done the trip from Minneapolis to Taipei. Minneapolis to Osaka to Taipei to customs to hours long bus ride. That was 24 hours of travel, and sounds way easier than what you have in front of you. Happy trails!

See you next week!

Safe travels.


And thus the great migration begins again, soon one will turn too many.



PS. I hope to meet you this year, and snag a photo for True Portraits.

Safe travels! It took me over 40 hours once to get from New Zealand to Indiana, so I can empathize with the long trip. I'm glad you'll have some time to recover before GENCON fully kicks off! I'll be arriving Tuesday morning, with a much shorter trip (about an hour). :)

Safe travels, other-Brad (and our other scattered adventurers.)

(Each year I mean to ask you to bring me a keychain made from a male kangaroo*, and I always forget until I realize you've left.)

made it to the airport for the first of 3 flights

found out I have a middle seat *sighs* never trust an travel agent.

the 14 hour flight is going to feel longer.

Hey Brad, I'll have a peek in the departure lounge, but I'm not 100% sure what you want, if you send me a link I can mail you one post con
