An early start with the last load of washing completed before our return to the motorhome. I can’t believe how excited I get about clean laundry…
And then it was time to say our goodbyes. Bernard and Shirley and Chris and the boys have a 10.30 am flight departure, therefore, we were at their door by 6.30 am for our last minute cuddles and then they were tucked in a taxi by 7 am.
A few tears were shed (by me). We have had such a lovely week and all good things must come to an end. It was sad to see them go however, we will see them in two and a bit months and we do have a USA Road Trip to finish.
Today is also the 4th of July, Independence Day in the USA. We will spend the day flying back to San Francisco or Fran San Frisco, as Wes likes to call it.
Once again an easy Uber to the airport, easy check-in and security process, semi-easy Chinese lunch at the airport food hall and a wonderfully smooth, no turbulence plane journey, this time with United Airlines.
We could not get the in-flight entertainment working but it did not matter, the boys were occupied on their i-Pads, Pete had downloaded a few movies and I had a very enjoyable book to read.
The flight felt like it went very quickly even with an hour delay when we had to divert back to the gate for a reason I am still not quite sure of.
I just prayed the aircraft stayed in the air…
We did manage to see a few different firework displays from the plane while arriving in San Francisco.
It was now 10 pm with a loss of 3 hours in the time change. Into an Uber to our hotel, La Quinta Inn in Millbrae.
Two-minute noodles and a packet of Doritos for Peter and Wes who were hungry and then all four shattered Browns hit the pillow.
It’s a miracle, I forgot to take any photos of the day…
