Saturday, February 14 – Trip Home

We managed to finagle tickets to depart the boat in the latest group. And we were absolutely the last people out of the dining room after breakfast. At 9 am, they called for our group to leave the boat. We will always have fond memories of the cruise, like the animal towel sculptures we found on our beds every evening. We always walked back to our stateroom after dinner in eager anticipation to see what the attendant had done.
The trip home was smooth but long. And we arrived to snow! Now, I just have 9 days of mail and email to sort through. That is right, I didn't connect to the internet even once while I was gone. Good thing I took Monday off!
