Friday was our final day in Zee but we managed to have a couple of hours down under a palapa on the beach before having to finish off the packing and check-out at two. Then we had a shared lunch by the pool before calling for the taxi and heading to the airport a little after 3.
Our flight was at five (at least the intended departure} and due to security, we should be there two hours early. NOT required in Zihuatanejo where I think they get six flights a day! It took all of fifteen minutes to check-in, pass through security, view all the shops and find out that the plane would be departing an hour late. We could have stayed at the Club another two hours!
Our flight home included a view of a volcano in Mexico that had erupted and was still spewing ash and cloud, an almost direct flight over Mission Viejo and the old El Toro marine base, and a heavy cloud/fog layer over LAX that required us to abort the first landing attempt and circle around for another attempt - this time it worked.
As we approached customs, Carolyn remembered she had put two limes in her bag and we heard that they if the dog found them, we'd be fined $100 per lime! We quickly found our luggage and disposed of them in the amnesty trash can before being arrested or fined.
Then it was through the international terminal and out to the curb to grab a bus to our parking spot. Then found the car and headed home down the freeway and to our dark home and very, very soft bed!
Home again and Gracie seems to have forgiven us.
