A dream life - 69 I can fly

It has been said that the stove cannot be shined by direct sunlight, it will make the master seldom stay home.
I am shifted to a new home, which has a window in front of the wash basin.
Anyway, next month, I have to attend an economic recovery conference in Geneva.
My insurance does not cover on-board of any ship.
Therefore I have to fly on an aircraft. I am a pilot, I can go to Europe on a plane. However the aircraft is too small for a direct flight to Geneva, I have to stop at many airports such as  in Mainland China, Mongolia, Russia, Ukraine, Czechoslovakia, Germany, Belgium, Then will finally reach Switzerland. The whole trip will only need half of the time if travel on surface.
and I must get ready to the airport, today.
However my passport was expired, and it will take two weeks to issue a new passport. Therefore, I have to cancel my flight.
The organizer of this conference told me on the phone, "Miss Underwood, you can send your speech to us via emails, or Fax, or by air mail, it may take 7 days to receive your letter, don't worry, we will get someone to read out your speech during the conference."
