Here is a picture of our new hangar - it is going to be huge, considering the size of our planes. It is supposed to be done by the end of the month. I can't wait! That will also mean the end of guard duty! YAY

I am expecting 2 care packages from home - I hope there are bagels inside. That is my big thing out here - I eat at least one bagel everyday. Mark eats just as many as I do, so they go pretty fast. I bought a toaster over here with the European plugs and I get the little Philadelphia Cream Cheese packets from the DFAC (P.S. I like Thomas' New York Style Plain bagels, in case anyone wants to send me some).


If there is one constant theme in my thoughts, it is food. That is the main thing I miss from the States - I have been dreaming of Aussie Cheese Fries from the Outback Steakhouse for months now. I also miss cooking and baking, even though I am definitely still a beginner with the cooking. I can make some mean cupcakes, though! :)
