We had to get up very early at 6:00 am so we can drive to Paris, refuel the
car, and turn it in.
We left Giverny a
little before 7 am and took a more direct route as recommended by Sandrine. The traffic was heavy and at a standstill at
some points. I drove and it was dark,
rainy, and congested. It took us a
little over 1 ½ hours but the GPS got us to CDG by the better route.
We first went to the Total gas station at CDG airport and
refueled the car. Then we reprogrammed
the GPS to take us to the Terminal 2 Enterprise car return. It took us right there. Whew! The car return was swift and we went to check
in for our flight. We got an expedited
pass through immigration and security.
We went to the lounge and had breakfast and coffee and waited less than
an hour to load onto our flight.
They called our flight, we went to the gate (all of the way
at the other end of the terminal, of course), immediately loaded onto the plane
and settled in for our 10 ½ hour flight from CDG to Miami. The meals and service were good and we were
able to nap soon too.
On arrival in Miami, we went through immigration and customs
easily. Fernando was there to meet us
and he took us back to Ft Lauderdale. We
are anxious to see the final results of our construction that has been underway
while we were traveling.
It is so good to be home.
Another wonderful adventure comes to a close. I think I enjoyed this one much more than Tim but we had fun together. We are home
for about 7 weeks and then it’s time to go on another adventure.
