There´s no better place than home.

Good morning, friends.
Here I am, home again. The trip back was nicer because there was a gentleman on the other seat and we talked for a while before lights out.
I started out in clothes for Aruba and flip flops but as night went on it was colder and I had to put on a sweater and ask for a blanket.
But friends! Luna came wagging her tail and immediatly we resumed our love story! I brought the suitcase and bag into the house and took out the essencials.
Again I decided that I had never seen a better bathroom than mine. And for me that is very important.
Anita called me to ask me if she would come today and I said yes. I brought her some merkén (hot smoked dry chili pepper) that she had asked me. I´m bringing it as a gift for her.
Christmas was lovely, but I don´t think that I´ll make that trip again. If they want to have Christmas here, so be it. But a 10 hour bus trip is not what I like. And the fare was very high but only the name "premium" and "bed" corresponded to the price. And now they don´t even give a glass of water during the trip.
See you later. I´ll take a tiny nap before breakfast.

So am I! I thawed something that wasn´t what I though it was. I thought they I was meat and they were lentils. So Anita will make a soup with it and I´ll make pasta with some pesto I found.

Yes nothing like home. And however clean and well done a place might be, we do not find it as suitable as our home.
Have nice rest at home and get back to Mylot "All Refreshed" !

A 10-hour bus trip is too much for me. I'm glad you went though. I'm glad you are back home safe and sound.

I love coming back to my home after a trip. Ten hours is long for a trip.

Oh wow 10 hours and not even a glass of water that sounds awful! I am glad you got to go and have this experience but I can understand not wanting to do it again. Maybe next year they will join you at your house.

Glad you made it home safe and sound and Luna was there to greet you. I know how hard long trips like that can be. I hope you have a good rest of the week,

I'm glad you're home safely and how nice that Luna greeted you so enthusiastically. Some dogs sulk if their family leaves them behind.

A ten hour bus trip...does the bus not stop at least once for gas, for people to get off to buy drinks or food? That's a long time to not even provide water. Is there a flight you can take if you ever want to go again? It wouldn't be near as long, but no doubt a lot more money would be involved.
Your own bed, your own house, Anita, food, and a dog who worships you. All good and wonderful things to come home to!
