The passage to Seoul

I met my group at Terminal 4 at JFK – a huge an apparently recent
addition – and we departed on time. I had never heard of Asiana
Airlines before, but they are presumably partners with United. The
service and food has been excellent.
I am currently directly over Sarah Palin (a distinction I am not apt
to claim happily, or often) as our flight path has taken us north over
the Hudson Bay and northern Canada, and across Alaska. We will soon be
over the Aleutians & northeastern Russia, I believe.
We are due to arrive at 4:00 am. I reset my watch to Seoul time before
departing, so it's now midnite again for me. I've learned – though I
haven't traveled through many time zones or often – that I do best to
start thinking in the new time zone way before I leave. Maybe I'm odd
that way!
I'm typing this at 35,000 ft but won't be able to send it until we
land. Our group leader, Hyaekyung, tells me it will be easy to find Wi-
fi connections.
