Arrival in Edmonton - safely back to North America, and with all our luggage!
Our second trip to Europe came to end on Wednesday, September 23rd as we flew back to Edmonton. The trip was easy - evidence that perhaps we had actually learned a few lessons from "The Great Luggage Debacle of 2008." (Note to self: 13 bags actually are too much.) This time all of our checked bags met the 50 pound weight allowance, and we cruised through security. Our hearts, however, weren't that easy to take with us as we already miss all of our friends and adventures back in Europe!
One final visit to the Aldstadt of Innsbruck on Tuesday - we love this place!
Buildings like this are old, but never GET old to look at!
One final Nusssnecke... yes, that is 3 S's in a row for this great tasting cinnamon roll.
As for the journey itself, it wasn't the shortest trip. First there was the two-hour shuttle ride to Munich airport, then a 9 hour flight to Toronto, a race through security, and finally a four hour flight across Canada to Edmonton. Wheh! (Or just 6 movies worth of travel...)
Glad to have "The Bus" on this day!
OK... we did actually bring a few extra carry-ons. Christie used "Double Backpack" technology to slip through rigorous weight limits on checked bags!
Can you believe it - year two has come to an end!
