Day 33, September 8

The end of the story ………

It felt like just minutes until the night was over and breakfast was served.

There were several plates on the tray, one with cold food and one with hot. The cold plate had

ham and turkey ham, cheese, tomato, cream cheese spread, some walnuts, a piece of carrot and

some whole grain bread. The hot plate had an

omelet, some breakfast potatoes, spinach and tomatoes and there was even a small plate with

grapefruit sections and blueberries. And soon we approached Frankfurt

and we could see their high rises from the window. Once we had landed we needed to get through passport and then wandered on to the Business Lounge in Frankfurt again.

There was nothing else to do, so we checked emails and then grabbed another bite to eat.

Hot Dog sausages with mustard and some lovely European whole grain baguette. There was not that much time in between flights so after a while we decided to head towards the departure gate for the last leg of our trip. We got there just as boarding started and quickly got seated.

It did not take long after we had taken off

that we were served yet another meal.

The small dish had

chunks of pineapple, some stewed strawberries and loads of pistachios and the larger plate had

chunks of sausages, egg spread, cheese, a small hamburger, some radishes and gurkins and some grapes, together with a

lovely roll and some

mustard. There was also a

IMG_1986_zpsmtn5xpnb.jpg


bar of chocolate. We had to eat quite fast, as the flight is only 55 minutes and they needed to stow things again. Soon we arrived at our home airport

and got off the plane, walked into the customs hall and waited for our luggage. We were lucky and it came out soon enough and we walked through customs and out to the taxi stop, where a friend of Tom’s was waiting to take us home.


 
Yay for reaching the end and home. Normally the end of a trip report is sad, but you have so many fabulous trip reports going on, it just means that now we get to hear more about those other trips. Plus you have another one coming up in March!

You have no idea how happy it makes me to have at least one TR finished! :woohoo:And it was about time too! ::yes::

Working on Tom's birthday trip/summer vacation TR right now. And since that is a "short one" I hope to get that one done soon. :littleangel:
 


Very nice wrap up! Lufthansa always has the best looking airplane food. :)

I was several pages behind and you were power posting!!

Great end to the trip. It was 2 years ago right? I miss the old paper fastpass days still.
Reading this helped cheer me up a bit tonight. Feeling the Disney blues and I needed a good does of beautiful park pictures with some of my favorite people!
 
Nice meals on the planes very nice !!! Glad all went well getting home !!

We never like going home, but it was a lovely long vacation and flying home business class helped with the hurting heart. ;)

Thank you, Jill! Yes, one of the advantages of flying Lufthansa - they at least feed you well. ;)

Jen, it feels like I am constantly pages behind. :rotfl: I really wanted to finish that baby off, having it run for over two years was long enough. I did not even plan for it that long. :rotfl2:

Great end to the trip. It was 2 years ago right?

Yes, that was our 2013 trip. It was one of the really really fun ones. Not that not all of our trips were fun, but this one turned out to be one of the top ones.

Glad I could cheer you up a bit, Jen! Having two trips to plan, my Disney blues is really low at the moment, but I know how that Disney withdrawel can feel. :hug:

We had a great trip and enjoyed the Flower and Garden Festival (and a bit more) for 8 days. And even though it was Easter and the parks were crowded we had a great time.

I am glad you enjoyed Palo! Brunch is always such a treat. And cruising again in September! Where are you going to? Which ship?
