The Home Exchanger is very happy to share with you part eleven of the story of Michael and his family's home exchange in the US!
We've reached the final destination of our home exchange this year: Home! We flew back Tuesday night and arrived here in Denmark at noon Wednesday. Still haven't recovered fully from the jetlag here Friday afternoon. It's not the time difference itself but more the fact that you more or less lose a nights sleep. At least none of us are very good at sleeping in a plane!
It's always wonderful to be abroad and explore new and different things, but it sure is nice to be back home. And it's very nice to come home and find everything at your house in perfect order after a home exchange. Not that we haven't done that everytime we've been doing home exchanges, but somehow it is a little exciting to see how the exchange family has been doing!
We've had a great holiday this year and we've been very pleased with our exchange this year. Both with the family and the house itself. It was a big house with more rooms that we could ever use and with all the facilities needed. We did have the fun of looking after the two cats Kelly and Boone and the dog Dylan! And it was great having Ian, the son in the family, home with us. Not that he was that much around, but as he didn't have the time to join his parents and sister on the trip to Denmark it was quite natural that he stayed home in the house even if we were there. Thanks to Judy, Ken, Ella and Ian for a great home exchange!
Just to complete our diary on what we've been doing through out the holiday we will post another three short stories. One with a quick update on what we did since we reported in last, one with a flash back to our stay close to Rochester, NY and finally an epilogue on why we fancy the US that much as we do!
