As I prepare to leave for Ireland next Wednesday, I’m already thinking about making the most of the time change. I’m going to bed a bit earlier and getting up earlier than I normally would. The time change is seven hours ahead for me, so that means close to half a day off from my normal routine.

If I eat dinner before I board then settle in for a good sleep, I hope to be in good form by the time we land Thursday morning. I have plans to hit the ground running even before I check into my hotel.
