So at the end of the day, I ended up packing the “Baby Blanket”. I figured, I might as well have one comfort items (no matter the size). When checking my luggage, I hit 56 lbs.. SIX pounds over the limit = $200!! So after quickly ditching 2 pairs of shoes and 1 pair of jeans and jacket, I came out at 49lbs. Note to self: this is why you weigh yourself naked…
Of course, I had a few items pitched while going through security.. I kinda wonder what damage I could’ve done with a stick of deoderant.. shrug. But outside of that, everything’s gone pretty smooth! I’ve finally learned to walk around a chaotic airport, and look as if I know what I’m doing 🙂
I’m now waiting on my second flight, which is somewhere between 13 and 21 hours long (time changes get me every time), but we will see. I’m excited to see if it will be as luxurious as I hear, with a lot of leg room, and different foods. I’ve yet to try a Middle Eastern dish, unless you count lentil and rice, that I happen to cook on the regular. Oh, and lamb.. that was interesting
Can't Stand The Heat 
I kept my blanket and a bath robe my mom gave me years ago – gotta have comfort items! Enjoy your journey 🙂
Thanx @Qiana.. I just pray it doesn’t get lost between all the stops

Great post…I’m enjoying your updates as I will be a newbie to living abroad this summer!
Thanx! Where will you be going to?
Oh the amazing things that can be done with lamb. Yummy, but check the fat count!
I’ll have to give lamb another try. The last time I tried was at a Brazilian restaurant and didn’t care too much for it..
