Road Trip Home

Oh, it was tough to leave Florida.  As tired and ready for our own beds as we were, it was bittersweet to end our vacation.  Johanna declared this our best vacation ever.

We packed up Saturday morning and made it through Florida, Georgia, and into Tennessee before setting up camp for the night.  The kids have been great travelers.  Of course, electronics and DVDs help.  :)

I declared the camp kitchen closed and we headed to breakfast at Starbucks on Sunday morning (conveniently around the corner from the campground). 


We thought we only had about seven hours to drive home until we hit this:


We were only an hour away from home when we came to a virtual stop and only barely crept along for TWO hours.  It was cloudy, cold, and dismal, making us miss being on vacation all the more.  As we were on the Interstate parking lot, we saw this billboard.  Funny that we left our dreams at Disney World and that we just couldn't get home to our own beds.  :)


The kids were happy to be home and to see the cats.  Our woods have really filled out in just the week we were gone.  The mountains of laundry made our washer and dryer get to work.  We were all very happy to sleep in our own beds, too!
