Yesterday's trip home went as smoothly as imaginable--there was even a BART train waiting in the station when we got through customs at SFO.
Today we picked up the gang at the cruise ship terminal. The kids had a great time on their trip, and couldn't stop talking about the food on the ship.
We also picked up the dogs from the kennel. Everyone is home now except for Beth's tortoise, who we'll pick up later this week.
Random thoughts about England:
1. They drive on the left. The escalators and moving walkways are on the left. So, why do they stand on the right and walk on the left on those escalators, just like we do?
2. Instead of "exit," the signs in the Tube stations all point to "Way Out." Yet they still have signs that say "Emergency Exit," not "Emergency Way Out."
3. We really appreciated the signs painted at the curbs reminding us to "LOOK RIGHT" and "LOOK LEFT." I wonder how many tourists' lives have been saved by these?
Now to wash the mountains of laundry that everyone brought home!
