My social leanings always get the best of me, as I was out late, and woke up feeling exhausted. But, after a quick shower and getting the girls ready, we got our bags down to the car (luckily parked right outside at a meter that didn’t start for another 30 minutes). After an easy drive to the airport, we gassed up the rental car, dropped it off, and drug all of our baggage and car seats back to the airport. We had plenty of time to kill, so we grabbed the girls some pastries for breakfast, and I grabbed a kimchi grilled cheese from the Beecher’s location in the terminal. There were plenty of seats on the nonstop Delta flight back to Indy. We had a non-eventful flight, and got in late afternoon. We took advantage of a free meal via Priority Pass at The Fan Zone Sports Bar, and made the short drive back to the house.
All in all, this another very fun trip to our favorite place on Earth. We’re so happy to now have easier ways to get there, and plan on many trips in the future. As always, the highlight was our time at Lake Crescent Lodge, especially the cottage by the main lodge that we stayed in. It will always be our “happy place,” and we think of it often. If fact, one of Laura’s Christmas present’s was a blanket that I had made by Shutterfly with a collage from our trips, from our first in 2010 as a newly married couple, to this one. We love it!
