We anticipate the fun and excitement of our adventure for days to come. The splashing water at the beach, the sunshine peeking over tall mountains, and much more.

Try to reduce your health risk while flying on long flights by walking and drinking water. According to Everyday Health, you can"Reduce your risk of a blood clot. Staying immobile for prolonged periods, such as on long flights, increases the risk of developing blood clots in your legs. You can minimize this possibility by getting up from your seat and walking about the cabin every 60 to 90 minutes. Drinking plenty of water and juices can also help. Avoid beverages that cause you to urinate excessively, such as alcohol and caffeinated drinks."
