May 23, 2017- Home



We had uneventful flights from Bucharest to Munich to Washington, DC. We spent the night at Judi's and drove home this morning. The laundry is on its way to being done, and we've gone through the mail.



On our drive through Maryland and Pennsylvania, we remarked that the scenery was just as lovely as in Bulgaria and Romania but with better roads.



To fill you in, as for the hippo search, we scored three. Rylee, our almost 11-year old granddaughter, collects them. We have found them in unlikely places. Our hippos on this trip range from a photo of the hippo taxi to be printed and framed; an Romanian alphabet book for kids with “H is for hippopotam;” and a small plush combo hippo/giraffe I found in a gas station, of all places.



David and I had six hours of driving to discuss the trip. We re-hashed what we remembered, which was a lot. Were still fuzzy on the names of towns. One thing we recalled clearly was when I asked if he could name the dumbest statement anyone of us made during the three weeks. It was mine. When we pulled up to the airport in Bucharest I said, "It doesn't look familiar at all." That was because we'd begun our trip in Sofia. I weeen!!
