New York City - Day 5 - The Long Journey Home

Thursday we had more to do at the BEA and I was a bit dusty, I guess 3 martinis is my limit these days.

Before leaving for the expo we received an unexpected visitor, Karen's dad was at our door as we were packing up to leave. He had just arrived in NYC after a cruise in the Atlantic. The day was uneventful, and a bit sad - we had really enjoyed our trip and could have spent another week or two doing sight seeing. But, it was a business trip after all and there was plenty of business to do after we returned to Calgary.

Danté had the limo ready for us when we got down to the lobby and we began our journey back to Newark for the long trip home. En route, Wayne told us a story of being stuck on the runway for 3 hours before taking off one time and how he never wanted to experience that again... our flight was delayed because of lightning, we waited on the tarmac for 4 hours. After a whirlwind trip, 4 hours actually went by pretty quick, mind you I think I nodded off.

We got back to Calgary and it was snowing. SNOWING!!!
