Well, that was some exciting travel blogging, don't you think? What? You missed it?
I would have liked to post once or twice, but obviously that didn't happen. In the end, the deciding factors were time and Internet access. We had a high-speed connection in Paris (once Michael figured out how to connect to it on about day 3), but our priority was to stay out doing things until we had to sleep. After Paris we had a little more leisure, but no internet access. I guess I'll be doing a France retrospective.
We were scheduled to arrive home late on Friday night, but we didn't make the connecting flight in Seattle and ended up back in Juneau on Saturday morning. I won't bore you with the full saga of our baggage. I can't honestly identify the genre: mystery, thriller, comedy? I'll cut to the happy ending: our last straggling suitcase came home this morning, wagging its tail behind it.
Despite our general exhaustion, we stayed up all day Saturday so we'd be able to sleep Saturday night. We made it until about 8:30. We got up this morning around 5:30 and were doing spiffy until noon, which was 10 p.m. in France. It's been a struggle to stay conscious ever since. Fortunately we had the University's Commencement ceremony to keep us busy all day. It's after 8 p.m. now, which means we stayed up all night from a French perspective. Can I go to bed now? Please?
