Today was another early morning departure. Up at 4am and off to the airport. Thanks a million Sigmund for the lift! It was easier to get up because the sun had already risen! It had been a great time in Norway and we so appreciated the big effort that the Vik's had put in to show us around and have us stay with them. Thankyou very much Sigmund and Sarah. Whenever we can return the favour... Now we were heading back to Italy. Our stop over was in Amsterdam, where we had to kill four hours before catching our transfer flight. An good opportunity for the kids to catch up on their homework. We finally got into Rome at 4pm and went to hire a car to get back to Celano but we hadn’t figured on having to have 1,200 EU available on our credit card as a security deposit for the quoted 207 EU car! You learn these things after a while when you travel I should imagine. The company wouldn’t accept a cash deposit which we had so it created a headache for us as we had let the credit card get down low. After much running around the busy Rome international airport with two tired children in tow, trying to find phones and functioning internet points we finally got things sorted at about 7pm with our new car and were back on the highway. Arrived late for dinner at Enrica’s but still caught everyone at about 10pm. We had another two days left in Celano and our schedule would be full fitting in visits and goodbyes.
