Home, Sweet, Home

Watching the sunrise this morning. Will take a while for the body clock to adjust. The flight home was very comfortable. We got bumped up to first class seats because they overbooked "economy comfort". We didn't get the nice silverware and champagne but we did get the cushy seats. Watched The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, some of which was filmed in Iceland. Had to smile when we saw the scenes of the pipe-lined road that we had just traveled.

Landed right on time, breezed through passport and customs, picked up our bags in record time only to wait for the car service. Called them up as we we exited the terminal and the guy said "You're out already!! Nobody gets out of customs that fast." Dan finally arrived about 30 minutes later and we were treated to a very comfortable ride home.

Pulled up to a hay field in the front yard. Everything is well overgrown especially the weeds! The irises bloomed while Deidre was here but there are still some around that we can enjoy. Total re-entry now. Laundry, mowing, groceries, filling hot tub, etc.

So that's it. We are back and I really can't wrap my head around all the stuff we did and saw. What a great trip. Didn't really expect too much. All the lodgings were just perfect including the barge. Except for a few bumps and bruises, we managed to stay healthy and upright (always a plus).

Thank you all for those who commented and emailed us throughout our travels. It is always so nice to hear from folks when we are far off for so long. 

Until next time...
