We fly back

September 11th
We get up, we have breakfast, we pack, Alex goes to the post-office to send the postcards, and then we get picked up by the driver.
The drive to the airport is uneventful.
We use the automatic check-in machines. Lots of fun. Then we get in line to check in our luggage. Then we take the luggage to the security people. Then we go hang out at the terminal. We Board our flight at 15:30.
The plane is smaller than the one we came in on. But the flight is enjoyable and the food is good. Movies are watched, games are played, water and soda is obtained.
September 12th
We arrive in Paris at 6AM. Instead of taking the shuttle from terminal 2E to 2D, we walk. Which is ok because we have 2 1/2 hours until our flight leaves and everybody around us is in a rush. We go through the passport control, we pass security, and then we sit at our gate for an hour. Alex watches one of his series and Fritzi works on her computer. Once more we are outraged that the airports want to charge us horrendous amounts of money to let us use their wireless Internet connection. So we don't.
Our steward on the Regional flight from Charles de Gaulle to Nuremberg is in a good mood and very polite.
We arrive in Nuremberg at 10:30. We get onto the subway. We go to the Rosenstrasse. And this is where we realize just how tired we are. It is 11:20 and we haven't slept in a while.
We go to sleep.
All is well.
We had a lot of fun.
We ate a lot of good food.
We did some cultural things.
We were lazy and hung out by the pool.
It was a very successful vacation!
