A light breakfast and we are off to the station at Abergavenny. We successfully navigate our way onto the train with our heavy burdens. It is with mixed feelings that we head home to our lives, our vacation quickly closing in on us. We have been treated royally this past 5 days in particular. Paul and Karen have been fantastic hosts, balancing the welcome to their home with just the right amount of respect for our time to ourselves. Happy to be going home , sad to be leaving a life of leisure and beauty. Reality will hit hard on Thursday morning for both of us when we must be back at our desks.
Pictures to organize, stories to write up, scrapbooking to do, and people to contact. The next couple of weeks is going to be very busy and a huge adjustment - but ah! Home!
It is a long journey home. The adrenaline of the joruney to England has burned off and the 9 hour flight home is tedious. 3 movies, one novel, 4 sudokus, dinner and a magazine have occupied us, but we are ready to land and be home. Beverages are being served one more time, with an hour before landing. Anything for a diversion.
Soon we will be back amongst all of you and we thank you for joining us on this adventure. We have enjoyed writing the blogs, anticipating responses, reading responses and knowing that some came along quietly, reading our blog but not commenting, just enjoying our story. Thanks to all of you.
By the time we get home and tucked in bed we will have been up for 26 hours, but we are determined to stay up and not nap on the drive home so we can overcome jet lag as quickly as possible.
See you in person soon.
Love
Us.
