Back home....

We are home.... 

The last day in Seville, I was not feeling well at all.  We spend the 1/2 day at the Cathedral before heading back to Seville via Vueling flight.  By the time we were back to the airport, I was going between hot and chills. I ended up sleeping at the airport for about 1 hour, and the entire flight.

Returning the car at the airport was easy.  They inspected the car, etc and I passed with no problem.  They didn't say a word about missing GPS mount .... We shall keep close look on my AmEx.

We stayed at Renaissance at BCN airport - which is about 10min free shuttle drive from the airport.  The only hotel during our entire stay where Free WiFi was NOT available!  It did not matter much, because I just wanted to sleep....knowing we have to leave the hotel at 5:00am.

BA flights back home was un-eventful- except for the 5-hour to kill at T5 at Heathrow.  I looked at every shop there...Gucci, Prada, Tiffany...Paul Smith, Thomas Pink....  I got my copy of Hello magazine..... But but.... T5 does not have duty free Hermes.....  I restrained myself and did not step inside Hermes in Barcelona... I felt betrayed....first trip ever I was coming home with no new scarf.....

BA49 from London was....75% Indian!!!! The coach ride from the terminal to the aircraft smelled like Indian restaurant.  They had their luggage tags with Bothell, etc... Eastside addresses.... All the tech people probably went home to visit relatives in India, and were returning to the States....

The flight felt like it took forever....strong headwind...crying babies....my own fatigue and sore throat.

After going through the immigration and customs, successfully bringing Jamon Iberco.... I stepped outside of the airport...dark and raining...and felt soooooo good, refreshing!

We stopped at Chinatown for Chinese wonton noodles on our way home.s

I will have 1000s of pictures to sort, laundries to do this weekend- fun, fun, fun!

Then, time to plan our next trip - to Turkey!!
