Day 13 : August 11th
With sad hearts and unshed tears, the four of us packed our bags at seven o'clock this morning to return back to the United States. We thanked Mr. Carter again for being so generous by letting us use his house as our own personal hotel and for all the food he provided. To settle the debt, we paid him $100 per person for the meals he had given us. Staring at the beautiful view from the house, we knew we must say good-bye, but we knew we would definitely return to Switzerland. This was the most fantastic, educational, and fun-filled vacation anyone could ever have, and we were so grateful to be able to experience what this country had to offer. When Mr. Carter dropped us off at Zurich airport, Lindsay hugged him and promised to email him pictures of the trip. We waved goodbye as he drove away into the countryside. At 5:00 this evening, we finally reached RDU, gaining six hours from the time difference. Kaitlyn's car was easily found; the ride home was quiet since we were reminiscing about the events that had taken place. The mood was definitely unhappy. We weren't sad because it was a bad experience but sad that it was over. Our journey to Switzerland was the most incredible vacation in the entire world. We all can't wait to return next summer!
