We had a VERY busy last day at home, the tension was high and nothing looked ready. We worked until the last minute and we did it! We finally got ready for departure. The taxi was waiting outside while we were checking around the house and finishing to pack our bags. Believe it or not, we were actually early at the airport, at least according to our standards…

We are not used to traveling so light. Our luggage didn’t weigh more than 10-15 kg each. We usually wait in suspense to see if the scale passes 20 kg or not.

The day was also quite full of emotions for everybody, especially Iseline and Viktor. They had to say farewell several times to the same friends, one more hug, and just one more… Iseline joined her class for the class photo, even though she didn’t attend school today.

We are now on our way to London, where we’ll sleep at a Heathrow hotel. Everyone is trying to relax after all the preparation work, and to imagine what lies in front of us. We haven’t quite realized yet…

Tomorrow flight to San Francisco leaves at 13.55. We’ll have time to sleep in the morning
