Yep fellow dopers, in 28 days I head for Edmonton, Canada, to spend a week with CanadianSue. Not only will this be my very first plane ride, but also the first trip outside the country.

Canada will never be the same again when I get through with it.

Oh yeah… I forgot to mention a really good way to get through your first flight and the attendants love it. Drink lots and lots of alcohol. It really helps, honestly.

Thanks for the warning, Ultress. It’ll give me plenty of time to warn the authorities of your upcoming visit. Expect the unexpected at Pearson International Airport… 😃

Other than drinking, what are you kids going to do? (Actually, what _else_ is there to do?)

Sue has promised that she won’t let them deport me until my week is up. Can you imagine the complete feeling of freedom knowing you’ll never see these people again? Hey I’m ready.

No holds barred, I can be the complete and total moron with no worries.

Moosie, catch me on the return flight in Toronto.
