We landed in Brussels around 4:30 a.m., hardly able to keep ourselves awake. The airport was freezing, it was 1C outside, and my fingers and toes were numb and I couldn't get any warmth to filter through my bones. We slept on the slatted benches that left your body numb wherever it touched the bench, and got up around 8:15 and had a coffee. By the time we arrived at the gate for the Newark flight, it was being loaded. And, so here I am now, flying about 37000 feet about the ocean and hurtling towards North America. It is a United Flight and the seats are comfy, there is lots of space, and the food was good!
Home travel was ahead of schedule all the way, and we arrived in good time in Toronto. Cathy very kindly picked us up from the airport. What a shock - snow, cold, organized traffic, no noise, dully dressed people, no-one trying to sell you anything - in short BORING!!!
When we arrived at the house in the early evening, we were stunned and delighted to find Alanna at home! She had a course in Toronto and had added a couple of days off work to be home when we arrived. What a sweetheart. She never ceases to amaze us. It made a delightful close to a wonderful holiday.
