Goodbye to Morocco, Portugal, Germany, Hello again Iowa
After spending a pleasant day in Marrakech, we took the train to the Casablanca Airport where we waited for 5 hours for our flight (blah). I spent the day in Lisbon, using the Travellers House as a home and packing up for the final journey home. I spent the night in the Lisbon Airport (blah blah). The next day I tried to board the flight and they said I had no ticket, which was somehow true. Five hours and $200 later (blah blah blah), I managed to use the Portuguese and German I know to talk a nice lady into correcting the problem by overriding the system. In Munich I ran to make the flight to Chicago which luckily had one seat left for me (whew). In Chicago, this was not the case. I had 12 hours until the next flight to Cedar Rapids, and I slept in the terminal making the total time I had spent in Airports somewhere around 4 days (BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH >>>>). Back in Iowa the 20 degree temp highly contrasted the 80 degree I had grown used to. (MEGA BLAH). It was nice to see family.
