10/7/13 (Monday) Home!

 
 
What a loooong day!  We woke up in Barcelona at 6:00 a.m. (that’s 11:00 p.m. Sunday evening CDT).  After checking out we grabbed a taxi and were at the airport by 7:15 a.m.  For some reason the taxi ride to the airport was 35 Euros and the ride from the airport to the hotel was 25 Euros.  I think we got ripped off.
 
The flight from Barcelona to JFK was smooth, but long.  Processing through customs and security at JFK was also relatively painless.  Then after we had lunch at an airport deli, we started noticing flights being delayed due to thunderstorms along the east coast.  And yes, ours ended up being delayed about 2.5 hours.  There were only about 20 folks on our flight to Nashville.  It was very bumpy (and uncomfortable) at times, but rather uneventful.  Once on the ground, it didn’t take long at all to grab our checked bag and take the shuttle to our car.  We stopped by BK on the way home and pulled into our garage at 10:45 p.m.  Ben was up with Grandmother, but Katie Lin was asleep.  We didn’t spend much time unpacking.  It was good to be home at last.  What a trip!  Now some sleep and then back to the real world…
