I'm climbing to 38,000 feet in an A330, 8:45 away from Amsterdam.  A little turbulence but not bad.  Anna's sitting next to me.  They just announced free beer and wine.  We're excited about that.  :)  No problems getting thru security at Seatac.  I'll be listening to GoRad in a few minutes.  Suddenly I see blue sky outside and I smile.
