Heading home





At the Paris airport

Today we were up bright and early... 5:30 am.  That was the first time I was super happy to be up that early because 1) the hotel was disgusting and 2) we were going HOME!!!!  Woo Hoo!

Breakfast at Mcdonalds at the Paris airport
The drive to the Paris airport was only about 30 minutes, and by the time Rodger dropped us off (a complete gong-show at the drop-off area) and returned the car rental, we were ready to check in by 7:30 am.  Found out our flight was delayed by an hour so we had plenty of time to get some breakfast at McDonalds before heading through the crazy security and get to our gate.


In Toronto... getting closer
From there, everything went pretty well, even though we were super rushed at the Toronto airport.  Kind of stressful!  So happy to be on Canadian soil again, even though we were still far from home.  Our last stop in Vancouver was pretty uneventful and quick, and we were home on schedule at 5:30 pm.

Jan was there to pick us up and we were so happy to see a familiar face!  Home by 6:00 pm!!  With food in our fridge from our amazing friends, a Thank You by the front door, and cards and gifts on the table from our two exchange families. 

Even closer... leaving Vancouver
Home. Sweet. Home.  We made it! We did it.  We actually did it.  Whew, am I tired.  I may sleep for 3 days.

The end. That's all she wrote. C'est tout fini.
