Adventures by Disney {Germany Day 9: Traveling Home}

When I embarked on this adventure, nine days seemed like an eternity to be away from home and my family.  In hindsight, I am not sure I’ve ever had a more magical nine days on my own – ever!  :-)  I only regret that my family didn’t get to join me and look forward to planning our first adventure as a family!

My departure day started bright and early with a 6:45 AM time to meet my private transfer in the lobby.  For guests leaving this early, our guides even put together delicious meal bags for our travel.  It was just one more unexpected and wonderful gesture after a series of many.

My flight from Berlin to Paris was uneventful and short. My first thought arriving in Paris was that the airport has come a long way in the 20 years since my last visit.  That was quickly usurped by the fact that my flight to Atlanta was delayed by 1.5 hours AFTER they had us lined up to board the plane.

My flight home was equally as uneventful and really quite boring.  I booked with Delta but was sent Air France.  The plane was decrepit with no wifi, a horrid selection of movies and pretty bad food.  I was definitely spoiled flying Delta on the way to Munich and won’t make that mistake again!!!

Regardless, it was absolutely wonderful to see my boys and hug their necks.  And Elsa too, of course.  I arrived home with so many memories and stories to tell.  I am so, so thankful that I had this opportunity!
