All Good Things Must Come to an End
And so do vacations.....sigh.

Airport blogging from Aruba while waiting for my flight. When the entire country empties out on Saturday and Sunday, the lines at the little airport here can get REALLY long. We arrived at 1:45 for 4:30 flights, and it took until just a few moments ago to finally get to the gate at 3:45. Immigration, security clearance #1, pick up luggage, customs, security clearance #2, drop off checked baggage....it was a lot of standing in lines, disrobing, taking off shoes, getting laptop in and out of case, and getting dressed again on the other side - twice.

We managed to do some shopping in Oranjestad and have a nice lunch on our way to the airport, but that resulted in additional shopping bags and carry on, so it's a lot to juggle just getting to the gate, and I'm sure the flight to JFK in NY will be full. Yeah.

Coming down mid week was a dream. We should have planned to go home mid week as well.

I swear the tan is already starting to fade, and the curls are falling flat.....
