Final days of our summer cruise/trip

I have been told that folks are left hanging as my blog did not finish the story.  So here are the final days: 

Day 17 - Friday June 27^th – Day at Sea

The last full day of the cruise, and a sea day, started with sunshine, deteriorated to clouds and ended with showers.  The day was spent chilling, reading, eating, napping.  It was also time to start packing for home.  Well, at least for Michael and Chuck.   We had bought a few new clothes and new carry on so we packed it up after dinner.  The weather has gotten better as we get further south and the temperature rose to 57 F. 

Day 18 - Saturday June 28^th – Dover and head for home

Robert awoke about 4 AM with a nasal infection and drip.  Our disembarkation times are 8:30 am, so we had time to kill before disembarking.  Michael and Chuck were catching Chunnel train to Paris to continue their trip in Europe.  Robert and I, boarded the bus in Dover and traveled a couple hours back to London.  We had been worrying about making the connection to flight home at Heathrow but it was easy and we had plenty of time.  The flight home was long and uncomfortable.  Airline seats in coach on long flights are not designed for lounging and sleeping.  We arrived in Dallas after 9 hours and since we had a night layover, we headed to Marriott to,  hopefully, get some sleep.  

Day 19 - Sunday June 29^th – Home at last!
We were up early and caught the shuttle to airport for our flight to Durango.  Upon arrival in Durango, it was time to find our bags.  The American Airlines check-in desk was empty when we got to the terminal. Robert asked the person behind Frontier about bags and he said that American would be couple of hours before an agent was there since next flight was not until late afternoon.  Robert told him we were looking for our bags, which were shipped to Durango via Frontier.  The agent said, “oh yes, I think we are holding some bags” and he disappeared.  After about 15 minutes, he returned with two bags. “Yep, those are ours.”  We were back home by 4pm and unpacked the bags that we did not take.
