Day 1: 5/7/22

Bon voyage!

Professor Matic and I

We are flying tonight to Istanbul- and tomorrow we arrive in Belgrade in the evening.

Even for Atlanta, this was not too bad.

TSA was great, and the lines were pretty short and I was pleasantly surprised! A very leisurely check in, and then I shared some drinks with my teammates.

Mateo volunteered to drive my car back home- I drove my professor, Vladimir (to be referred to here as Vlada) Matic and Mateo to the airport. We had good conversation and some chicken from Zaxby's.

I've got a 10.5 hour flight ahead of me, plus a layover- so 15 hours of travel. Gonna try to get some sleep- I have my headphones and my neck pillow which I hope will serve me well. Really anticipating jetlag... uh oh!!

The gang and sitting down before going to the gate (sorry Lexie)
