It is an early morning for us as we hit the gym one last time, then hit the airport extraordinarily early because all the airlines warn of long security lines and advise you to get there 3 ½ hours before your flight.  Well, we definitely didn’t need it – but we still complied and had a couple of hours in the lounge before our flight time.

But beyond that, the trip was a breeze.  No need to sleep – it’s a daytime flight – no Monster Child to scream the entire flight to destroy your peace.  Just a nice 8 or 9 hours of watching movies, eating pretty decent food (the hamburger meal before landing was surprisingly good!) and then we are back in the U.S of A.  Three hours in Atlanta – the lounge makes it bearable – and a quick flight back over the mountains to Asheville.  Easy.

We are home and unpacking by 8pm.  And just like that, a magical trip is over.  But we will always have our memories…..and our loot!
