Greetings from a rather mild Krakow. It has been a long week, in the office on Poland time, then back to my apartment to start Mexico-time calls. I'm exhausted.

Tomorrow I will start packing my bag - I'm on TK on Sunday, first as a newly minted Elite, to Istanbul. Will be 3 nights there - doing a bit of work, but some gym time, a couple of massages, etc, to get some much-needed R&R ahead of the long journey home. A 14.5-hour flight to Mexico awaits on Wednesday. I am counting my blessings that it is in J. I couldn't even begin to imagine how knackered I'd be if flying it in Y.

Looking forward to being home for the first time in 2 months...
