Reverse Travel Day

We’re home! And I’m catching up on posts. 

Bye, Viking Modi!

Left the ship in Switzerland at 4:14 am Saturday 11/7, 

 Hello BSL! Aka EuroAirport Basel–Mulhouse–Freiburg

traveled for 19+ hours and walked in our front door at 2:30 pm. 

 Sunrise between Switzerland and Amsterdam- moon and Mars (satellite?) at far right

Saw sunrise over Switzerland, 

 Amsterdam. KLM’s CityHopper taxied us for 10? more? minutes before parking in a cargo/spare parts area, then busing us a long way back to the actual terminal. So weird.

the outback of beyond in Amsterdam 

 Christmas decorations going up at Amsterdam airport

and walked 1 1/4 miles, most of it at LAX. 

First priority has been hanging out with a cat on my lap 

 Dinner on KLM. When the flight is 10+ hours, paying for lay-flat seats and decent food is worth it.

and the second was sleeping for days. 

 All our stuff made it - scuffed but not broken - to LAX! Including the pretty blue suitcase we bought in Germany because I *might* have packed too much.

Traveling is fun but being home again is better.
