Travel Itinerary!







Well, today my travel itinerary arrived from Houston along with my E-Tickets from Aramco. Tuesday, March 27th I am depart from Manchester, NH and fly to Houston via Cincinnati, Ohio. When I arrive in Houston I will meet 23 other fellow teacher/ travelers and we will be brought to a hotel in Houston for a day and a half orientation with our Aramco hosts and mentor teachers who have previously traveled to Saudi Arabia.

Thursday, March 29th, I will depart from Houston on a 9 hour and 20 minute flight to Amsterdam (5,014 miles). There I will have a FIVE hour layover before I travel another 6 hours on a flight from Amsterdam to Dammam, Saudi Arabia (another 2,925 miles). After over TWENTY hours of traveling, I should arrive in Saudi Arabia and I hope we are scheduled for one LONG nap!

The travel plans inside the country have not been given to us, but I do know that I will be staying at the Al Faisaliah Hotel in Riyadh and the Jeddah Hilton. Check out my web links if you want to see pictures of these gorgeous hotel facilities. Notice the gorgeous health clubs. Unfortunately, as a woman traveler, I will not be able to use those health facilities as they are designated as men's only.

Please continue to check this site frequently so that you can travel with me and learn about life in Saudi Arabia!
