Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away
If you can use some exotic booze
There's a bar in far Bombay
Come on and fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away

Come fly with me, let's float down to Peru
In llama land there's a one-man band
And he'll toot his flute for you
Come on fly with me, let's take off in the blue

Good morning, everyone! Up, up, and away! In just a few more hours we leave for our next adventure; a long motorcycle ride though the Fall mountains and a few days of paragliding school! I'm ready!

But first... breakfast! Ahmad's "English Breakfast" tea, some rice, crab legs, and tsukemono, and a bowl of miso soup! Then off to pack my bags. My wife was smart. She packed last night. I was too lazy. But it's only a few days, there isn't much room on a motorcycle to take very much anyway, and really, what do I need? Some warm shirts, an extra pair of pants, a sweater, socks and underwear. Add in a toothbrush, and my e-reader and I'm all set. I can recharge my phone from a socket I mounted on my bike.

I've tried and tried, but never yet succeeded in making my own blend that tasted better than its parts. Good luck with it! BTW... there is one company that makes a Russian Caravan tea with just a touch of Lapsang Souchong... but I can't remember which company it was! I bought it once, but didn't particularly care for it, perhaps because of the Darjeeling?

When I fill my tea bags, I use almost twice the recommended amount of loose tea. And often steep for twice as long as recommended...

Congratulations! I wish you all many, many more wonderful years together.

Well... time to pack. See you all this coming fall on the Big Rock Candy Mountain!
