HOME SWEET HOME
Hey guys!
I’m finally home :) I must say it feels good. However our flight home was no easy peasy. We actually got delayed! So everything was pretty good on the flight from Rome to Heathrow. As we were passing security to board our next flight, they took away my perfume and facewash :( boo. After that, me and Lola got on the elevator. I was ahead on the escalator and when I nearly reached the top, I heard a thud. There I found Lola on the bottom of the escalator with something red filling up the lines of the escalator. I quickly went down and tried to not freak out. Thank goodness there was this Irish man person who kept Lola’s head up while I kept her feet up on the escalator. We quickly called for help and they found that she got a cut on the back of her head! This was probably the most traumatic thing I’ve ever encountered. I can’t forget the image. Lola keeps saying it’s no big deal but I guess for me it is. Anyway, we got on the ambulance and went to the nearest hospital. The ambulance people were really nice and the doctor was nice and chill. She just glued the cut shut and we were ready to board the next flight. My Lola’s tough. Holler.
After all that, it was smooth sailing. Sorta. Because our flight got delayed, we missed our connecting flight to DC. However British Airways gave us a free night at the Hilton near Logan Airport. It was nice, real nice. We caught our 8am the next day and by 930am we were in DC. Thank God.
This was the roughest flight I’ve ever been through. This trip has been definitely one of a kind. It had it’s peaks and troughs but overall it’s an experience I would never forget. Now that I’m back, let’s hang out so I can tell you more stories rather than just reading about it :)
As they say in Italia, CIAO CIAO!
