We arrived home in Traralgon at 2:45 after some 48 hours of travel. After leaving Pompeii, we had to drive our hire car some 200 km back to Rome to drop it off at the Hertz rental place at the airport. Despite a one hour delay due to a crashed truck on the airport highway we arrived almost exactly at the agreed time of 6pm. From then on it was just the usual airport grind involving dragging our laden suitcases to the appropriate terminal etc and to endure the endless security procedures. The trip home involved three flights - Rome - Dubai, Dubai - Sydney and Sydney - Melbourne. All were uneventful and the sheer boredom of the journey was off-set only by the thought of getting home and catching up with the family.
All our travel arrangements went off without a single hitch. Over the next couple of days, when we've had a chance to reflect on what we experienced I'll make some comment about our activities, the accommodation and travel decisions we made etc. But for now it's time to hit the sack.
