Philadelphia
Get up in the dark. Drive to airport. Stop for espresso and croissant. Say goodbye. Flight. Landing in Frankfurt. Talk German for two hours. Next flight. Next landing in Philadelphia. Immigration Agent: Polite. Customs Agent: Polite. Sister. Hugs. Tears Ninety degrees out. Ride home. Country. Chester County farms. Cherry trees. Brother in law. Hugs. Tears. Turkey burgers. Rucola Salad. White wine. Laughing. Catching up. Tiredness setting in. Sleep. Wake up. Croissants and coffee. Sitting around in pj's. Shower. Yoga stretches. Email. More rucola salad, with fried eggs and brie cheese. Talk to Micha. Construction ok. Max ok. Miss my boys. Oprah.

How well I know that feel. Enjoy every minute in your "American mode". How is your brother-in-law doing?
Lots of good wishes to my bella Diana!

Sigh, wouldn't you rather come visit your niece in Newark, study some literature (Mann, Goethe, Schiller, Kafka, you know, my home boys), and get exposed to the swine flu at the University of Delaware??? Swine '09.
Wouldn't you like to come to Basalt where the weather is perfect and the swine flu doesn't dare to venture???
I'm glad to hear that you made it to your sister's safely.
It all sounds good! Enjoy your time with family & friends. How long will you be there?
At least you got two hours of German in... and Oprah! I'm excited about sausage and waffles!
Sounds wonderful. And I love how you wrote it up.
Must be nice to be there visiting family! Enjoy!
Welcome, Diana! Hoping to see you while you're here. We're too close not to miss!
Glad to hear you arrived safely. Are people in Philly wearing masks too? I saw photos of people in L.A. wearing them.
Enjoy your visit with family and friends. I fly out in 2 weeks, maybe this flu will die down a bit by then.
Hopefully we can meet up while I'm in Aqui Terme.
Ciao
Diana, great post thanks for sharing. I know these feelings well. Such strong feeling when we arrive and then when we leave... enjoy every minute there !!!
