Coming Home
We flew from Rome to London to NYC and stayed over in a hotel and flew from there to Chicago and then to SLC. When we arrived in NYC we were at JFK airport and it was such a great feeling to go through passport control and hear them say "Welcome Back" It kind of choked us up to be back on American soil with a renewed appreciation for our life in this great land.
We decided to take the airtrain and subway to the hotel near LaGuardia aiport where we departed to go home very early the next morning. We should have taken a taxi or shuttle because it was quite an adventure to get to where we needed to be. We ended up taking the airtrain, the subway, the subway again, a bus and then the hotel shuttle. We met a nice woman and her daughter who took us under their wing and helped to get us to the right place. It was freezing cold compared to Italy and we had 2 sleepng babies and luggage in tow. When we arrived at the hotel about 3 hours after our plane landed, we went right to bed :)
Here are some picture of the kids as we traveled. They were SOOOO good the whole trip. I wouldn't have dreamed of taking either a 2 year old OR a new baby on an international vacation but Heather and Joe are amazing parents and did such a great job with their little family this whole trip. I am sure that they will be ready for a vacation from their vacation now.
