Yes,
all good things have to come to an end.
Up early, we were greeted and bid farewell by Mary Virginia at 7:00
am. That is true dedication and so "Mary Virginia." Thank you for that special touch. Our taxi got us to the airport in
about 15 minutes and we beat the congestion at check-in and security that
occurred about 30 minutes later. Our
flight to Paris departed Florence

and arrived at Charles De Gaulle on time,
which was perfect to permit us to navigate that airport for an on-time
departure for Atlanta. Although, we had
1-3/4 hr to accomplish this, all the time was needed. We arrived in Atlanta to proceed through
customs, etc. using Global Entry, which was so efficient, to be faced with long
lines at TSA. Once through that, we were
off to Terminal D for an on-time departure for Birmingham. Arrived on time in Birmingham, retrieved our bags and walked to the
upstairs area to have Rachel just arriving to pick us up. We had messaged her as she was leaving the
hospital after a 12-hr shift and we converged at the same time. Then we drove to Emily’s house for the 40th
surprise birthday party Sean had in progress.
Plenty of food and drink and great music provided by his band in a
lovely outdoor setting at their home.
Wow, what a day! Also, wow, what
a fabulous two weeks.
