The trip back home wasn’t without its challenges. We experienced flight delays, massive security lines, difficult travelers, seat assignment mix ups, being put on the back row with seats that didn’t recline and our luggage got lost. But, they were just minor inconveniences. Overall, everything was fine. We didn’t land in Houston until 1am. We made it to our host home around 2am. We slept from 3-10am and awoke feeling the effects of jetlag. We decided to go ahead and get up and head toward home. We got showers but since we didn’t have any of our luggage, we couldn’t change clothes, shave, brush our teeth and other niceties. We did some shopping while we were in Houston. We ended up going to several stores and found some good walking shoes on sale that will work better than the ones we wore to Bosnia on this trip. We made it home late on Sunday night. Our luggage didn’t arrive until late morning on Tuesday. It was a good trip and we left feeling like we had made an impact in several lives.
