G'day, Mates!

As I promised a few of you, here is a "before" picture of the Billabong Express -- bright-eyed and ready to go at about 5:30 am at Ft. Lauderdale Intl Airport. We'll see how we look when we arrive in Seoul, oh in about 20 hours or so. Sounds like fun, huh? Everyone is in good spirits at the moment. We'll be boarding shortly, may check back in when we get to Chicago -- maybe I'll have our first embarrassing photo to share.
