Travel day... On our way home

Yesterday we did a "trial run" to be sure we knew exactly where and how to get the train to the airport. We had some frustrations with trying to get to other places and we wanted to be sure we were clear about the route....even the walking to the right station. Then we checked with the security guards... no English... to let them know we would be turning our key over to them at 6:00 am. the next day. We did an online check from the apt. It was our first time using a boarding pass on our phones and it worked with no glitches.. 
So this morning went smoothly. We were surprised by the number of people on the move that early in the dark and rain.  We got to the airport in plenty of time. 


Our flight to Amsterdam was short.. 45 minutes but it took us 5 hrs altogether with train and check in etc. 


In Amsterdam we had a bit of time before our next flight so Ron had to have one more ....actually 2 croquets and I needed some good fries and mayo. Surprisingly I HADN'T had fries for over a month :( The Dutch fries are truly the best !!!



Then on to Vancouver. A loooong flight as we were flying into the wind ...  9 1/2 hrs. But KLM is a great airline, they wined and dined us and kept us entertained. 
Home soon !!!
