......sort of ! I am currently on a bus heading north from Logan on the next to last leg of our incredible journey. It has been a long day,,starting with the wake up call at 5:45 am GMT (12:45 am EST) to the cab ride to Heathrow through a still dark London to a boarding call for the emptiest 767 I have ever seen! It was fabulous. We each had a whole row to ourselves so I could stretch out and relax. There were so few people on the flight that everyone could have free wine and beer and newspapers. It was almost as good as flying first class!
Upon landing in Logan I hear this "Ms. Caterina, is that you?" as I waited for luggage . Along comes a former student, Zmira Zilkha, whom I taught at Waynflete a long time ago. She had been on the same flight heading home from grad school in England. She filled me in on fellow students then headed out to meet her parents. What a small world!
So...here it is 4:34 pm EST more than 12 hours after setting forth as we head for Portland and a ride home to beef stew made by my mother in law and my cat, Gingerbread, and bird, Pineapple. Caterina is very excited to have her animals and her own room for the next couple of weeks. It is great to be almost home!
