Back in the US

I"ll keep this short, since it's late and I'm supposed to be getting my clock back on track. We're home! We had a non-stop flight from Athens to JFK, and another flight back to San Francisco. The flights themselves were uneventful, although getting our bags in JFK, in order to go through customs, was a huge pain (and almost didn't happen).

Gary says together we took over 5G worth of photos, which I hope will eventually make it onto a webpage or two. We still have a lot of notes we want to write up, based on our scribblings and pamphlets and receipts we collected. Typing should be a lot easier now that I've got a normal keyboard, too!

After six countries, miles of walking, numerous train rides, a few buses and taxis, and a ferry trip, it's really good to be back home.

To quote Dorothy in the Wizard of OZ, 'there's no place like home'. So glad to hear that you both made it back safely. Bet Trixie and Frito are just purring with happiness to have you home.
Love,
Aunt Mari & Liz

Welcome back to reality. Amazing how vacation time periods seem so much faster. Good luck with those countless digital photos. We recently had a 2 week trip to Colorado and New Mexico and still haven't finalized sorting out the 700+ photos. Could the solution be treating your free digital card space as if it were expensive film when taking pictures?
