Flying Back to Salt Lake City – Going Home

On August 19, 2012, we boarded a Lufthansa plane in Trieste, and flew to Munich in Germany.

We were surprised that the plane had propellers, and that the airplane mechanic rode out to the plane on a girl’s pink bicycle.

We then boarded a United Airlines flight to Chicago, where we cleared customs and then boarded a United Airlines flight to Salt Lake City.  We only had to clear customs with two large bags because we accidently left two at the Mission Home in Budapest.  Earlier in the year (when it started getting warmer in Hungary), we sent one bag with Maja, and two bags with Laura and Derek.

The Olympics had just ended in England, and we saw the Russian basketball team before leaving Munich. Are they that big, and is Brenda that small?

We arrived in Salt Lake City at 8:30 pm, where we were met by James, Garett, Rob, Chad, Amelia and Carlin.  It was a great homecoming.  I guess this means that the mission (and the blog) is finished.
