It was another early morning wake-up at 4. We had to have our bags out at 4:30 as the van was leaving at 4:45. I met Judy down in the lobby, got my breakfast box transferred to a plastic bag, and then waited on Bill. Mohamed (our A&K guy) and the hotel folks were having a fit because Bill needed to be there with his claim check to get his dagger out from captivity. He finally showed up, dagger was retrieved, and off we went to the airport. Mohamed got us as far as he could, and then said his farewells. He still had the other 3 to collect later and get to the airport.
The trip home didn’t seem as bad as going over. Flying during the day seems better, and this time we only had a two-hour layover in Paris. We got back to Newark at 4pm. The car picked us up and said we would be better off not going through Manhattan because of the time and because Obama was in town. So we went across the Varazanno Narrows Bridge which we rarely do.
Home sweet home in Raleigh on Dec 4. It will be a while before I totally absorb all that we saw, did, ate during our trip. Processing photos and loading them online always helps.
