This early morning we said good bye to this beautiful castle on our way to the airport. It was a sad day that this incredible opportunity has now concluded. We enjoyed every minute of the views of the country side on the way to the airport. At the airport we were able to stop for some breakfast because we managed to get through the security quickly. I stopped at the Harrods’s store at the airport and picked up a bag for my sister's birthday and small bag for myself. When I get back to America my sister will meet me at the airport and it’s her birthday. The flight back home was much longer than the flight to England. But this flight was much quieter and more peaceful because all the passengers were adults. It was not like the trip over, a plane packed with a middle school soccer team, so chaotic. The flight to England they sat behind me and kept kicking my seat the whole trip! Imagine being on plane for 6 hours and having 12 years old boy kicking at your seat the whole trip!
When I finally arrived at Milwaukee airport, my sister picked me up to go meet with our family for dinner for my sister's birthday. My sister loved the bag and shirt I got for her. My family loved hearing stories about my trip. They were so happy to have me back home too.
This trip was a wonderful opportunity and an AMAZING experience! Thank you Alfred Bader, Nippon Foundation, PEN International for making this happening!
