This is not the plane I'm leaving on, this was taken at San Javier airport through a plane window while I was waiting to take off back in September. It seemed appropriate for announcing my trip :-)
Hope you all have a good few weeks and I'll see you soon :-) Apologies if I miss any commenting today or they are a bit brief :-)
