Day 18 - Flying back home

We had a 1:45pm flight so we didn't have to leave the hotel until 11am. Lewis picked us up right on time and we were at the airport 15 minutes later. the line for Continental was pretty long and it seemed that there was only one person at the counter helping people. Kat waited in line while I went to pay our departure tax. After almost an hour in line we were checked in and made our way through security. Once in the terminal we found our gate and sat down while we waited for our flight to board. We were sitting right next to the duty free store where they had a stand set up and were giving away free shots of various vodka and rums. After about 4 shots of good rum each we were feeling pretty good. Our fight was delayed about 45 minutes which made me nervous since we only had a 90 minute layover in Houston to clear immigration and customs. Fortunately once in Houston we learned that our connecting flight was delayed so we could breathe a bit easier.

We arrived back in San Francisco at midnight - it was cold and raining :(
