Canadians & My 10 Hour Layover

I think if I am posted up in an airport in Toronto for 9-10 hours with free internet access and I do not blog about this, I will be extremely upset with myself later. So here I am, melting into the scenery while everyone else scurries about around me. My only saving grace is iMessage, this free Canadian Wifi, and the fact that my chargers work in these outlets.

Here's how my trip is supposed to go, and let me just say for anyone buying an international ticket, it would be worth the extra few hundred not to have these layovers.

STL to Toronto, Canada
Toronto to Sao Paulo, Brazil
Brazil to Buenos Aires

All in all, this will be around a 30 hour trip. DO NOT DO THIS TO YOURSELF! (Just some friendly advice)

Overall the time is going fairly quickly though, and it is a nice break from being in the air. It was so much harder than I thought to say goodbye to my family, friends, and Andrew. I cried off and on through security and for 45 minutes until I boarded my plane. I'm so glad I packed makeup in my carry-on bag so I only look like a somewhat crazy person that now lives in the Toronto International Airport.

Now only 2 more hours until I leave on my 10 hour flight. Hopefully I'll get plenty of sleep and maybe Brazil's airport will be as generous as Canada's has been. It looks like my program, CEA, has plenty planned for me this weekend and next week, but I will absolutely do everything I can to keep everyone updated on how I'm doing there. Luckily I have some wonderful people in my life that sent with me objects and cards to keep me going. Alright I'm going before I tear up again.

Please continue to keep me and my flights in your prayers, most of you know how I'm afraid of the ocean and I'm just a bit preoccupied that my plane will end up at the bottom of it and I'll be eaten by a shark :/ (but of course that won't happen mom!)
