We weren’t in any hurry to leave, which is just another way of saying we had a great time. It was one of the best trips, ever. (For us, maybe you had a better trip sometime!) But now we’re home and it’s good to be back in the US. No knock on Germany or Austria (except the cigarette smoke), we really enjoyed them. But home is home.
The flight was good, just long, about ten hours. Lufthansa treats you nice, at least in Business Class. Nice seats, good food, good service and a not-too-crowded plane. Coming back is odd in its own way, as you basically get a nine hour extension on your day. Most of the people on the plane seemed to use the sleep-during-the-flight-and-hope-it-helps-you-cope-with-the-long-day-once-you-arrive strategy. We dozed but mostly took the 24 hours awake approach. At this point, we’ve been up 23 hours and will knock off soon.
So this is the last of the daily blogs. It was fun, the comments were fun to read. Hope you got something out of it. We did. We’ll have a few entries with some of our observations in a few days. Also, the photos are still on the SmugMug site and I’ll post a few more in the coming weeks.
Thanks for reading!

Our chariot awaits…
