Glad to hear you made it home safely. I enjoy reading your journals! But I also have tailbone/sciatica issues when sitting for prolonged periods of time. I use a wedge shaped square seat cushion that has a cut out at the back for the tailbone when sitting in a car or when flying long distances. I brought mine with me when we flew to Rome last fall and it made the flight tolerable. You can get many different versions on Amazon.

Glad to hear you are safely home. We arrived in Spain yesterday aft yesterday and now with our daughter in Murcia and feel relatively normal after a punishing flight. 17.5 hours Auckland Doha. A transfer of 3.5 hours. 6.5hours Doha Barcelona a 5 hour transfer then 1 hour Barcelona Alicante. Must say it was wonderful to be met by them and wished the hours drive to Murcia. Lovely to relax in their house then a surprisingly good nights sleep

Sweet dreams of your wonderful and colorful trips we ALL enjoyed because of your kindness.:)

Welcome home!!!

I was actually JUST going to write the same comment!!

Makes sense and it works!

You can console yourselves too with the chance to finally see your first cackling geese!

The temperatures at home are now reaching or exceeding what we have here in France, so at least we can continue cycling, albeit on the useless roads they have there, with not an 11th century church in sight!

I don’t doubt you’re both feeling wistful, but congratulations! Have a safe journey home.

I remember this! Now there's an icon for ya.

Don’t forget to blow out the candles upon exit .wink, wink. Or, are those battery operated?

Note the road signs affixed to the shutters! Clever!

This may be Chaumont, but the guy says “Paris” ;)

That was fun! I loved these puzzles as a child.

And, such a happy reminder of that lovely location in NL!
