Home and Loving It...

 Sunday, March 8. Some cloud with sun. 11 C.

A bit of a mixed sleep because of the long day, [exactly 24 hours from the time we walked off the ship till we walked in our home.] Only 13 1/2  hours was actually flying time. The rest was waiting and trying to be comfortable in situations that were impossible to be comfortable in.

The easiest and longest part of the day was in our seats in the plane. The seats are what they call 'Lay Flat'. When they know that you are calling it quits for the day, they actually roll out a nice clean Duvet Cover that very nicely fits over the headrest, back, seat and leg length, that is when the seat is fully extended to 'Flat'. You can get in the 'bed' and lay down flat then pull over the blanket, put on your mask and insert ear plugs and then nod off! You are hardly visible from the very few people walking by. It worked for me, I figured that I got a good seven or eight hours of haf decent sleep. It was the best sleep ever on a plane. Fellette, not so good but then she did not have two glasses of wine before! It was a fine enough bed for me, the only thing was that it was like sleeping in a Fox Hole or Slit Trench that was about 23 inches wide!, in your clothes, They offered pyjamas, which I took, but did not use.]

The trip itself, was not a good one; far, far too long for me and I have lost my comfort-zone on cruises methinks. Never say never but not likely. We would like to get away for something, somewhere, seeing something simple and short just to know we are alive.

Jeanette and Craig came for and bought dinner with them tonight, nice, you can't beat a casual easy dinner with Adult Children.

Great Grandson Miles is two today where both Haley's and Nathan's parents will be there. We opted out as we can almost guarantee that we are going to fade early tonight and we don't need a drive home in the dark.

This ends my Travel Blog folks, not what I expected but I am happy with the outcome: we are home and ready to start working on a new vegetable garden and another year of doing what we love! Thanks for coming along on the ride!

Doug and Fellette

Great Day.

The garlic is up, let's hope there is no hard frost in the next couple of weeks, as is in the forecast!

Peach Blossoms are coming now.
