Headed back across the pond!

We left for the airport right on time with no clear plan.

We thought we needed to buy tickets to the subway but they told Greg tickets weren’t needed for the tram which is free. Logan went on the hunt for the tram.

We seem to be on the right track
Found it!
Maddie is so thrilled to be on this team while the boys have the same exact stance.
Headed up to security

Maddie’s purse got stopped for additional screening because of her perfume and Greg’s computer was also stopped to be swabbed. The good news is that the cheese made it through without any incident!! That’s a win right there. Logan headed on up towards the gate while we waited for the things and sent a text saying it was basically like Rodeo Drive upstairs. He wasn’t wrong. I could have done some damage with some time and money.

The Paris airport feels like it’s had a major renovation since the last time we were here. Guessing maybe for the Olympics.

We are headed for this shit show. Boarding had started before we made it there.

After some weird interaction with a gate agent trying to tell me where to walk and not walk we were cleared to board.

I swear I’ve got more blankets and pillows in this seat than in my airbnbs on this trip.

I told them to pretend like they liked each other.

Greg told Jake he could put the divider up if he wanted to.

Maddie did not appreciate the humor
This is my perfect itinerary. Leave, food, nap, food, rest, food, land.
Might as well start with some sparkling wine
Bye Paris!
This is life. Warm nuts and a movie!
Dinner? Lunch? Literally no concept of time or what time zone I’m eating in. Chicken wasn’t good. Other stuff was.
Dessert? Why not

Greg got a text while we were in flight that our train to DC has been cancelled. Real freaking cool Amtrak.

After some scrambling we were able to rebook on a different Amtrak train that gets us in a little later. We thought we were going to have to book United tickets but this is a better (free) option.

Second dinner. This was better than the chicken.
Landing in beautiful Newark
