We awoke to the sound of our alarm clock for the first time on our trip, and quickly got ready.  We refuelled the car, dropped it off at the rental place, took the shuttle bus to the airport and checked in a bag – avoiding the whole bagging our liquids separately thing.

Once checked in, we had a bagel and croissant breakfast at the airport before flying back on a totally uneventful flight. The taxi driver we got in Berlin was a crazy driver, but we ended up back at home safe and sound – though no faster than the normal and sane taxi drivers. Driving like a madman does not, is seems, save you any time!

Back at home Odin, the cat, was very happy to see us. We cleaned up a bit and shopped for the next few days.
