Teppy hates flying too. Probably just as much as me, but I doubt she ever almost shit her pants crossing the pond. Teppy discovered a long, long time ago that the secret to flying resides in a little tablet called Ambien. Last year when we went to Croatia, I took an Ambien once we boarded in Atlanta. I can honestly say I have no recollection of ever taking off from Atlanta that trip and I woke up 2 hours from Paris. NOW THAT'S WHAT I CALL A FLIGHT ACROSS THE POND! Needless to say, knowing we'd have one long ass haul across the Western pond, this girl headed over to the primary care physician a week before the trip to get the prescription filled. There was no way in h-e double hockey sticks that I was going on a flight that long without some sedation.
My journey began in Atlanta. I flew to Milwaukee to pick up Teppy...and visit with our dad for a few days before we left for Korea. Teppy's husband drove us from Milwaukee to O'hare. We flew from Chicago O'hare to Tokyo. We then caught another flight from Tokyo to Seoul. We flew United and our tickets cost us $1305 each round trip. This was a pretty good deal for a summer flight to Seoul.
