The trip home went well. Even though I didn't sleep much, I woke up quite refreshed and had no waiting time at my University of MInnesota clinic. I picked up held mail at the post office on West 7th Street, sorted through it, and got to the bank.
Bob's daughter Sonia left me fruit and yogurt, all very welcome since I had nothing in the house except beer, booze, wine and Girl Scout cookies. She had also turned up the thermostat: I'd underestimated how cold the air would feel and it was great to walk into a warm house.
I spent a couple of hours at MSP before my flight. I had lunch (delicious vegan black bean soup) at the French Meadow Bakery along with a Jack Daniels & diet coke. My seat companions were both very tall, with large frames, so the ride down felt a little cramped but the wind got us into TPA shortly after 8:00 p.m., ahead of schedule, so early that we had to wait for jetway placement. We were home by about 9:30.
Total time, door-to-door: 27 hours.
About Me
- Catherine Hennessey
- The first blog was a simple travel journal written during an Alaskan cruise in 2008. I document all of our trips, and refer to my posts fairly frequently, especially when we're planning a return visit to a destination. I enjoy recording events in both words and pictures -- blogging is one more way of staying in touch with family and friends in this wonderful, connected world. I've been retired since April of 2013, and there's no shortage of things to do or activities to enjoy. I enjoy writing about everything ... and nothing.
