European Heritage: July 7th...We come home!

It's great to travel...but it's always good to be back home!

We had a leisurely morning...we had gotten up earlier than we needed...but Bjorn came back from taking the Texas group and said we didn't need to leave as early as originally planned. We had a great breakfast, and then just relaxed awhile...then we were off.

Jeanette and Bjorn were with us until we went through security at the Zurich airport...it was sad to tell them good-bye. They have both been incredible...so easy to get along with...so much fun... and they did an excellent job!

Our flight home started with a flight to London...then we changed planes and headed to SFO. Our flight from London to SFO was 11:05 hours...after only being 9+ hours going over. When we arrived at home, it was still going to be July 7 and still be mid-day...so a lot of the group tried to get some sleep. Many hadn't slept much, if any, the night before....

Poor Kaycee...she definitely had a long day. Once we landed at SFO and got her baggage and mine, we had to make a dash to the Delta terminal and get her on another plane for L.A.

Megan was one of many who used the eyemask furnished by the airline...it definitely helped with sleeping!

On international flights, everyone has their own TV screen. You can watch movies (many to choose from), TV shows, news...you can listen to all types of music...and you can watch the flight...it will tell you how long we've been in the air and how long we have to go...it tells you the outside temperature (how can a plane fly when it's -67 degrees Farhenheit???), etc. A lot of our group also had headphones on so they could watch/listen to their selection.
