Mom didn't make it to the University today after her longer-than-expected journey over the Atlantic. After flying the first leg to Dulles in Washington, D.C., she watched through the window as Air Force One headed down the runway en route to the Middle East. Her own flight was late getting into London, and when she finally touched down in Hamburg, she traveled to her hotel without her luggage, which opted for a longer layover in London and still had not made it to Germany when I last heard from her. Mom was greeted with chilly weather - people were dressed in jackets and turtlenecks, and no one was wearing strappy sandals the likes of those that hit the streets in Charlotte well over a month ago.
We're about seven hours behind Hamburg, but I'll make an effort to post updates as quickly as possible throughout the duration of the conference. Mom's alarm should be going off shortly - the first session starts in a few short hours, and you'd better believe she'll be there.
