But I get airsick

I know you're not supposed to tell people when you go out of town , so that theifs don't steal my junk, but 1. grandmas and 4 girls are hard to all snag at once and 2. if thiefs are reading my blog then I've got other things to think about.
We leave tomorrow for Africa.
My husband asked me years ago, if we could go anywhere in the world, where would it be? I really thought he was asking me for the 10 year anniversary (which has passed). I said without a pause: Scottland!
And now we leave for 2 weeks with no children to Africa. No safaris, no amazing race, just backpacking and living in other people's houses for 2 weeks.
I have friends who live in other countries happily, but this is definitely a good culture shock for me. I'm just hoping I get to experience a squatty potty (and test out my legs of steal book). Some people have threatened the eyeball snack on me... I'll let the human vacuum, johnny handle that one.
I keep getting asked what we're doing and the answer is: I dont know. I don't know if we'll move there, or if we'll even sight see. I don't know who we'll meet or how we'll get there... my goal realy this week is just to get out of the country and I plan on achieving it. Otherwise, I go whereever! So be excited for us! 2 weeks to "renew" our marriage... I use quotes because I feel like we've just gotten married anyway, so I'll love on him pretty well. 2 weeks to regroup from my kids... yah, I'll be grabbing other people's kids while I'm there I'm sure. and I'll come back with an elephant and maybe a tajin.
