We are on our way!
We have successfully completed the first 1 hour and 4 minutes of the 29 hours of flying time it will take us to get to Ukarumpa. We spent all day yesterday packing and re-packing our action packers with the result being three action packers at the maximum weight of 50.9 lbs. and one large duffle bag weighing in at 50.9 lbs plus our carry on luggage. We got to bed around midnight last night and at 3:30 am this morning we jumped out of bed and hurried to the airport for our 6:00 am flight out of Billings. Praise the Lord the security barely blinked at all of our action packers! Our next flight will take us to Singapore through Seattle, and Tokyo. If all goes as planned we should be in Singapore in around 20 hours.

Woohoo! We are so excited to hear about Ukarumpa. When I say "Ukarumpa" I feel like the people who live there are really small, but I think it's because it sounds like "oompa loompa" Havea great trip!
ReplyDeleteSweet! Can't wait to see how everything goes! By the way, thanks for the info, we are trying to figure out what it all means but hopefully it'll save us some $ in the end! I feel like you guys are going to be creating a trail for us to follow, and for that I thank you a ton ahead of time! Happy flying!

ReplyDeleteAlso, now that tomorrow is your birthday, though maybe your birthday is right now, I'm not sure how you celebrate when you're in a completely altered time zone. :) Anyway, happy birthday Kim. You're my favorite Kim in PNG. :D
