There's no place like home...

Yesterday morning I woke up at 4:15am to get ready to head to the airport. After traveling for a total of thirteen hours (plus a two hour layover), I arrived at Dulles Airport on December 10th. It was about 10:20pm Czech time, so needless to say, I was tired. I knew I was back in America when I walked into the airport and heard Christmas music playing! However, the best sight was walking out to see Dustin and my parents waiting for me. The whole thing felt very surreal. We then went to Chili's to get a mushroom swiss cheeseburger. I don't know if it was just because I hadn't eaten this type of food in awhile, but it was the best mushroom swiss cheeseburger I had ever eaten! So, I haven't even been back in the U.S. for twenty-four hours yet, but I can say it is good to be home. It's true when Dorothy said, "There's no place like home." And I'm so thankful I'm here to celebrate Christmas!
