December 15 - Homeward Bound

St. Thomas to the Atlanta airport!  I have been through the Atlanta airport many, many times but this was the first time I actually left the airport in a car.  Because Delta changed some of their flights we had to spend the night in Atlanta.  Fine with me....it just extended the vacation a day longer.  We flew back to Portland on the 16th.

In case you've ever wondered... in October of 2012 the airport in Atlanta  handled 55,884 meteoric tons of cargo and 8,270,232 travelers passed through.  Makes you doubly thankful when you luggage isn't lost and your flight is on time!  I can't even imagine the logistics handling all those suitcases, plus the mail and other cargo, plus more than eight million travelers.  Wow!
