Home At Last!

November 15

Today we said good-bye to Richard’s parents and hopped on a plane to start a trip that would take us back home. On the plane, we sat next to a mother with two small children, who were certainly a source of entertainment! When they weren’t playing contently in their seats, and shaking the TV in the headrest in front of them (to “make it work”), they were sleeping.

We finally arrived in Winnipeg at 8pm, but our bodies were closer to 2am. We quickly regained our energy, though, after seeing that my whole family had come to pick us up! It was so good to see them again- I had really missed them!

Richard and I returned to our home, which is perfectly clean thanks to the girl who was house-sitting for us! A pile of mail is waiting for us, along with a number of suitcase’s filled with dirty laundry and souvenirs. That will all wait until tomorrow, though. The clock say’s 11pm, and our bodies say 5am, so we are going to bed- in our own bed! Hopefully Richard will wake up in time for work tomorrow...
