Last Day of Vacation -- Wednesday, Oct 31

Last Day of Vacation -- Wednesday, Oct 31

One last trip to our bakery for croissants and fresh-baked bread.  Packed.  Walked the vines one last time.  Sat outside in the cold and enjoyed the views.  Had a glass of wine with our landlord.  Set the alarm for 5:30 and were asleep by 9:30

 

Here are a bunch of pictures of our "neighborhood" which we've come to really appreciate.  And, as well, a couple more pictures from inside the house looking out:

 

Thursday, November 1st

Left Broze by 6:45 am.  A holiday, so no traffic on the way to Toulouse-Blagnac airport.  Turned the car back in at Hertz.  Got lectured by the Lufthansa person about taking too much luggage on the plane (but she relented and gave us gate check passes).  Flew to Frankfurt.  Changed planes and flew to Houston, Texas on a very, very full flight.  It took 11 hours and I had the route map up on my screen tediously waiting through each minute.  Punch drunk from lack of sleep in Houston, but we eat some dinner at La Salsa.  Flight is 2 hours delayed.  Finally in LA.  As is all our luggage.  Home by 1 am and asleep soon after.

 

Friday, November 2nd.

We wake up in LA, in our own home.  All is back to normal!
