“Live the life you’ll always remember!”

Early morning start to get on the long flight home.

Au Revoir, Europe.

Don’t miss us too much. We’ll see you again in 7 months.

On our way home.

Starting with walking (with our to-be-checked luggage) to a bus stop in Setúbal. Bus to train station. Train to Lisbon. Subway to airport. Airplane to Amsterdam.

Checked in to our hotel and soon we were asleep.

Day 1 of a long day of traveling.

Finally on board.

Now watching the parade, as always.

As always, we take the last photo at the door before we leave.

Lots of jackets and coats for Florida, but is it enough for Amsterdam?

We will find out eventually…!

Like any Sunday afternoon at Orlando airport, the lines with vacationers returning home was never ending. It took a while to get us all through, and Pieter got the worst of it.

As soon as our monorail trip was done, we hwaded straight to Vino Volo for some wine.

Our flight is now delayed for about 45 minutes, so we had wine and llayed cards for a long time.

If you know, you know. 🙂

Packing for a winter vacation is challenging in a different way.

On the last trip we got three weeks of clothes in two carry-ons. It was summer.

This time, it is going to be more than can fit in suitcases that small. Winter clothes are bulky, but we need the warmth.

Extra warmth for our Florida blood!
