Now it is finally time to go home.  We have breakfast in the hotel, get ready, pack up our bags and get ready to leave for the airport.  We check out just before noon and hop into a hotel car for the ride to the airport.  As there is not traffic on this holiday weekend, we make good time, getting there in about half an hour.

This gives us plenty of time to spare and we have to wait around for the counters to open (even though they did tell us to get here three hours before the flight left and we were there less than three hours before hand).  The only hassles we had on checking-in was taking care of the airport tax and the initial security check.  The staff took some time comparing Lars' passport photo to his new look with long hair and a goatee.  In the end, we were allowed to check in.

The flight was on time and we were pleased to see that the plane was virtually empty - we could spread out and take a nap.  We got to Miami in time, picked up our rental car and drove the three hours up to Melbourne Beach.  It was nice to get home!!!!  Now all we have to do is prepare for our next big adventure - stay tuned.
