Maybe, Emily...
One good thing, is that now that I've traveled to Europe quite a bit, when I go to California, the 3 hour time difference doesn't bother me half as much as it used to. That is good, since my son/DIL, former exchange student, and brother live there. We are planning a family vacation in Morro Bay for next August, so I don't think there will be any international travel this coming summer. But, you never know. I think we have some BA miles that have to be used soon, or we lose them, so that might be incentive for a quick trip.
