Finally it was our last day. I have never before wanted to get out of Disney but this time was so different. I want to go back to Massachusetts so I can come back Home!
I drove the car to the Dolphin first thing to return it. We had a Saturn Ion. What a great vehicle! And once again let me recommend Nova, the place we rented from. If you like to save money, give them a try!
The car drop off was easy and I had lots of time so I wandered over to the Boardwalk. Even at just after 8 a.m. it was in the upper 70s. My trip took me through the YC, by SAB and into the lobby of the BC. Holy Cow! They had a bunch of Christmas decorations up including the big tree. I left there shaking my head wondering how it got to be November already.
I was going to bus over to MGM and get an ASMusic bus from there. At the Y&BC you either walk to MGM or take the boat. I cut back through the hotel and waited for the boat.
Once we docked at MGM I went over to the ticket window to ask about the Florida APs. Ill need a FL license or utility bill proving residency. I want the Premium pass which is pricey (I love TL!) but still nearly $100 less that the out of state PAP. Then it was back to the hotel.
DH and I caught the 12:35 bus to the airport. One of our stops was at PC. That place is huge!
Our flight left right on time. A big storm with high winds was heading towards New England and I was concerned there might be delays. Logan airport in Boston closes all but one runway if the winds get too strong. It backs everything up all along the East Coast when that happens.
As things turned out, we landed around 6 p.m. just as the storm was starting to get its act together.
We had another great and fun flight. The husband started whining, I want to go home (back to Auburndale) on the plane. Now were both doing it here in MA. We took the shuttle bus from Logan to Braintree and when we pulled into the terminal I was ready to call my son to pick us up. However, he was already there. What a kid! Just another bit of magic in this very special trip.
Since Ive been home, weve learned that the company we bought the house from will give us the entire agreed upon amount to fix the problems the inspector found.
Now the real work begins and Ive got less than 3 weeks to finish packing and doing about a million other things. Whatever angel has been sitting on my shoulder the past several months hopefully will hold on for a few more weeks.
Despite the stress and worry of moving 1,200 miles, this is my dream and a very special time. I want to enjoy every minute of it!
High Points My experience with Nova.
The flight back to MA.
My son being at the bus station when we arrived.
Low Point Wearing cold weather clothes in 80-degree heat because youre going home.
Weird Point Christmas decorations.
Best Point Knowing Ill be back here for good in 3 weeks and all the fun things waiting for me to do!

Our local housing market is insane!
I've wanted to make this move for about 20 years now. Start forming a plan and you might be surprised just how fast things work out.
