Day 19 home

This trip marks our daughters "49th state"--she will have slept in every state except Hawaii. We plan a LOT of things to do and see--we can always catch up on sleep once the vacation is over. :)

Thanks for you review! We will be on the Sun in 4 1/2 months and we can't wait. I was happy to see your honest review and helpful hints.
