Adventure continues

What was supposed to be an uneventful ride home has turned into a full and exhausting day. We took the metro to Charles de gaulle only to learn in route that the workers are strking and service is interrupted. So just getting to the airport was a bit messy. The flight to Atlanta was thankfully without real incident except for the gal sitting next to me who called for a flight attendant when she couldn't find her iPod figuring that I had taken it. It was in her seat cushion not my pocket. - sigh. On the flight from Atlanta to Indy we traveled with the coffin of a local fall marine. It was very emotional and moving to watch his coffin being moved to a herse under honor guard. It was a poignant way to reenter our country.

We are tired, missing the kids and happy to be home but wouldn't have missed it for the world!! Mike and I will always have Paris!!

  2. Ditto to Em. So happy you are safe at home. Loved hearing about your adventures. Travel is so broadening.... And experiencing it vicariously is right next to doing it yourself. Call when you have some minutes. Bet the kids were ecstatic to see you. Love you both.
