My dad almost had a heart attack when I told him I was going, but to be fair, he only crossed an ocean to get to HNL, so he's a bit suspicious of pretty much any overly foreign sounding place.

I still haven't told him that I'm playing around with the idea of going to HAV this year...

Don't be scared. I'm going to IST on TK in June when they come to ATL..
