Going Home

 Before leaving Geneva, we got out our map of Europe and filled in the last places that we visited. A read line began in Southern Italy and ran almost the entire circumference of Western Europe. 

On June 3rd, we arrived to our new home town of Columbus, Ohio. The first things we did were buy new clothes and eat home cooked meals. We appreciated sleeping in the same bed and as soon as we moved into our home, we thoroughly enjoyed putting all of our things in one place where we knew they would stay. However, we knew that our European road trip's impact would stretch throughout our lives. It would effect our learning in school, our relationships with each other, our sense of adventure and our perspective of our place in the world. We were happy to be home but looked forward to more adventures in the future.

Wow, thanks so much for posting all of these blog entries Camille! I feel like I went on the trip with you guys. What an incredible experience. I'm impressed, proud, envious, and inspired. I was just looking at the names of the places you went and it's mind blowing.

I think my favorite entry is the one about Ezra on the boat in Konigsee. There are too many favorite pictures, but Keukenhof and the Alps really stick out as favorites.

What a treat, Camille, to take us all the way through Europe with you in your blogs. Your photographs are spectacular and your children make beautiful models. You have a great record for the children to remember their journey with. Mom
