Monday, March 20, 2017: After eating our leftover club sandwich from the night before, we were in the hotel lobby before 4:00 AM to check out and board the bus back to the airport. |
| Once we were in line, that was the last of the Celebrity service and we were back to being independent travelers. |
| We had seen these amazing wood benches when we first arrived in Quito, so we took some time to get a better look at them. |
| We sat on the inward curve of the bench and then the outward curve. Both were pleasant enough to sit on, but we couldn't figure out a way to smuggle these back home in our backpacks. |
| By 6:30 AM, it was starting to get light out on the airport runway. |
| We took off on schedule and were over the Andes in northern Ecuador in no time. |
| Breakfast was delicious. |
| Of course, we couldn't pass up an opportunity to watch "Moana" again. |
| Here is what appears to be the top of South America, ... |
| ... then two hours later, the Florida Keys appeared. |
| At 11:00 AM, we landed in Miami. |
| As always, the fish artwork dazzles. |
| So cool. We could look at these for hours. |
| After immigration, customs, rechecking luggage, and going back through security, we treated ourselves to some deep-fried seafood and foofy drinks. |
| Several hours later, it was time to board another plane. |
| Off we go! |
| No meal service this time and we weren't very hungry, so we bought some snacks in lieu of dinner. |
|
We crossed the Ohio River into Indiana as the sun was going down. It's good to be home.
** THE END **
