Our Homeland

Minutes after our 10:35 a.m. departure, it was time to leave the beautiful Alps behind us.

~~~

The return trip seemed to go by more quickly than our flight to Berlin almost two weeks ago – maybe because it was daylight for the entire eight hours.

~~~

 We knew we were “home” when this skyline came into view.

Then we saw her – our own Statue of Liberty.

~~~

The entire day went smoothly – check-in, security, flight, and customs.

After getting home, we decided to visit our sons and their families (who live locally), my youngest brother’s wife, and my oldest brother and his wife – in an effort to stay awake until 10:00 p.m. 

It has been a long day, and my body clock thinks it’s 4:00 a.m. Friday, but give me another day or two, and my body will be in sync again.

Thanks for all your kind words and prayers.
