Maybe an Asia run (BOM/SIN/BKK). Too early yet. I'm still planning the January calendar.

There used to be two separate holidays, Washington's Birthday (Feb 22) and Lincoln's Birthday (Feb 12). In 1971 they got combined into the non-descript President's Day. It sure seems like hasn't been that long that we stopped celebrating both days but maybe I'm just getting old.
