Day 14

Day Fourteen

Leonardo DiVinci Airport Rome

You have to take a bus to Terminal 5 to fly to the USA

Martin woke at 4:15 and drove Karl and Cherie to the airport to catch their flight. On the way back to the hotel at 4:45 am Martin was flashed on the road by a speed camera. I am sure we will have a speeding ticket in the mail in about a month. What they really need are crazy driving cameras and sensors on their road markings!  (See day two)  Martin and Eva drove to the airport at 8:30. Once we turned in the rental car we couldn't find our terminal. We finally discovered that all of the American Airlines including American, USAir, Delta, United and others were all located in terminal 5 which is not visible from anywhere in the airport. We learned that it requires a bus ride to get to. Finally we were there. On our way home, Eva bought a post card for Erin.  The airport, however, did not have a postal drop box. We flew to Washington DC where we mailed the card. In Washington, Martin had texts to call into the office. When he called in he discovered that his company finally had a signed contract with Marc Anthony and they also have a demo set up for June 4 in Qatar.  Yay, maybe we can pay for our trip now.
