A look at our airplane with Qatar Airways

Qatar Airways has to be the nicest airways that I have ever flown.  Betty and I both talked about this and agreed.  We were pleasantly suprised at how nice it was.  My adapter doesn't seem to be working well here with my laptop (seems to be a voltage problem!)  and so I don't have much time left to share, so, I'll share the pictures and video and give you the other pictures and videos tomorrow!See the comments below. Qatar Airlines is a 5 star airline with a lot of leg room and the food was nice as well (especially the Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream.)

Dulles isn't too dull

OK, Katie's last post doesn't have her photo on it because the memory stick is now STUCK in my laptop! We're all on the Internet. Tayler has been skyping with his family and using his webcam. Katie and Casey have been blogging. Mrs. Betty is reading a great book!

I'm sitting here with a little bit of an earache, because that is what happens to me when I travel.

But, also am working on the opening speech for the conference. It excites me and makes me very nervous. This is a huge dream for both Julie and I as we have a common vision and dream to unite students around the world to not only study technological trends and experience them, but improve all of our cultures by helping students understand one another and understand our world better.

It is amazing to me how connected we are - whether it is via cell phone, webcam, computer, email or blog - we're more connected to back home than ever before.

It is interesting to me that instead of the long slide shows we used to see that if you subscribe or follow this blog, you can literally travel with us.

I encourage you to find your favorite blog post (or blogger) and leave a comment below. Blogs let you comment and ask questions and leave comments. Just remember that we preapprove comments so sometimes it may take a moment to show up!

Chilling @ the airport in Washington

Hi to everyone from the capital city. We arrived @ Dulles International Airport at approximately 3pm. We came to our gate for Qatar, and then John and I headed for the Ben and Jerry's that smelled so good. We ate ice cream. Cool. And now we sit.
