We landed a few hours later in Salt Lake City. While the plane headed to the gate we got to look around and decided that we would go back there one day to explore all the things we were seeing outside the windows. I miscalculated the time between our next flight and once off the plane we had about 10 minutes to get across to the other end of the airport. It is a very funny sight to see three worn out people running with all their carryon luggage through a crowded airport. I am happy to say we made it and once we got to our gate we saw the flight had been delayed 30 minutes. We spent those 30 minutes devising a plan for when we got back to Portland and we were starting to get more energy the closer we got to home.
We made it! We were back in good old rainy Oregon and boy did we miss it. So many shades of green, nice people, outdoor adventures, dogs, food, our own beds, family and friends. After trying to remember where we parked the car we eventually made it back to our house after picking up the Puppie of course. We spent the rest of the day cleaning all the clothes we took on our trip, sorting presents, watching T.V. and just enjoying being home. Every part of the trip was our favorite part. I think the best thing was that I was able to spend quality time with Jay and Nina while creating lifetime memories that are more valuable to me than any amount of money. I enjoyed the company, the trip and the learning that happened. I can't wait to see what our next adventure has in store for us.
