To the airport
Jaap and Mieke left yesterday morning from Dulles airport.
Obviously, we arrived there very early and the check-in line was short. Everything went well except that the airline clerk almost forgot to take out my parent's I-94 papers. That would have been inconvenient. Jaap and Mieke were flying with KLM/North West, and when we arrived at Dulles we saw that some of the maintenance personel of Nortwest was on strike. There were other people working instead of the strikers, so the airline could keep on flying.
We had coffee together, and after an hour or so I took the bus back to Rosslyn. It was sad to say goodbye, we had had a couple of very nice weeks together.
Today, Sunday, was a very happy day: I went to Dulles airport again to pick up Sasha. She's been with her parents the last few weeks and her plane arrived around 2 o'clock from Milan, Italy. It's wonderful to be together again.
When we were in line for the check in counter yesterday I saw that I had a missed call from Ettie. We called her back (using a phone card). Jaap and Mieke arrived safely Sunday morning in the Netherlands, and went to bed extremely early: 19:30 o'clock local time.
