Sep 3 MON – From Rome back to Boston

We took an early breakfast, and left the hotel at 08:24.  I put another €23 worth of benzene into the car to top it off, and we returned the car to the airport at 08:57 with 11109 km on odometer.

Here is a breakdown for days, kilometres, liters and Euros that we used during this vacation:

At 10:21 we passed all check-ins and all controls, and our flight left right on time at 11am.

10-59 ROME Bus takes you to the plane 13-46 EST Data used
Re-fueling – Done! Car returned – Done!  Passport control – Done!   Now bus will take you to the plain for a super-expensive Alitalia flight back home We landed in Logan.  How much data I’ve used on iPhone?  Good news – I did not go over 100 MB limit.  Verizon did not get extra $25 from me.

This time the flight went very fast, and time flew by.  Flight was completely booked, and all the seats were taken. However, each passenger had an individual entertainment center in front of her, and I was able to combine some sleep with watching couple of films switching between Italian and English versions.

Flight landed around 13:40, but we waited for a really long time for our baggage.  Taxi ($52) brought us home only around 15:24. And that is it.  The house was all right, and both cars started without a problem.  A long 24-nights adventure was now over.  Perfect. Perfect. Perfect.
