leaving T.O.

Today is my flight! I am flying Emirates into Dubai, with an extended layover where I will be meeting up with my man, and then together we fly into Riyadh in a few days after playing tourist in Dubai.

I am flying economy on a regular plane, so I'll be having none of that "shower spa" decadence of the airbuses. Apparently, the Saudis say that Emirates is the only way to fly in the middle east, so I am taking my cue from the natives.
