My little bird is flying the coop

Well not so little any more, she being an adult and over 21, but she really is flying the coop. Flying the skies in fact, Wednesday morning 1 am our time, (thats 1 pm Tuesday USA Eastern time), she board a plane for UK and Europe, gonna be away 6 weeks.

This will be her 3rd trip over there, she is going alone, and intends to meet up with some of the friends she made while living over there for three years.

She is soccer mad also, so I think there is an intention of visiting Germany while the World Cup is on, she probably wont get to see any games live, but I gather that most venues will have large TV screens set up outside for the many fans who cannot get insid the stadium.

(On an aside, talking about large screens, my son just bought a 6 ft screen tv for his lounge room, its a wide screen format. I suggested he get some wide angle glasses to ensure they can see all the screen at once. Its enormouse).
