We were up by 4:00 so that we could shower and get breakfast before we headed out. Of course we didn't have much left for breakfast, so it wasn't great. We weren't sure how long it would take to get the rental car returned and checked in, so we gave ourselves lots of time. Thankfully, everything went pretty smoothly. It was a little tricky getting checked in as one of the machines wouldn't scan our passports, but once Lennard switched machines, it went okay. We didn't have any issues getting through security, although Emma was a little put out that she was told to keep her shoes on. She didn't think it was fair that we 'got' to take ours off! Once we found our gate, we got some sausage and egg muffins and a granola yogurt parfait.
Our flights home went well. The airplane had touch screen entertainment systems in each seat, so the kids were kept busy the entire time.
My phone was completely full of pictures, so I didn't get any other pictures. Minneapolis was a lot bigger airport than I was expecting. It took us quite a while to get to our gate. We grabbed a quick bite to eat for lunch and then got our next flight.
We got in to Calgary on time and thankfully got through customs and had all our luggage arrive. The shuttle for the airport was there within ten minutes and we loaded up everything and headed to get our van. After a quick bathroom break, we were on our way!
We stopped in High River at McDonald's so that the kids could run off some energy in the play place. We were all anxious to get home, so before long we were back on the road. By about 45 minutes out of Town, Ben was done. He just wanted to be home and asked every two minutes if we were there yet. They were both very happy to be home and Emma immediately ran to give hugs to all her stuffies! It has been such a fun week and we've made wonderful memories together, but it's sure nice to be home in our own beds!
