Bon Voyage Millie

Millie made the big trip back to the US last Friday. Matt had to go to Minnesota for work so we decided it would be easier to take Millie now rather than when we all go in a month. The idea of Finn, Millie, carseat, dog crate and suitcases all safely getting to the airport made my head hurt. Hopefully this simplifies things a bit when we make the final trip.

It was very sad to see Millie leave Switzerland. I think she really enjoyed her time in this country. It’s a dog’s dream here – dogs are allowed everywhere – public transportation, cafes, stores, hotels. She’s going to miss hiking in the Alps and daily walks by Lake Geneva.

The flight was uneventful this time. (When Millie came to Switzerland the airline somehow managed to lose her for a period of time in Chicago, so anything is improvement over that experience.) She did well on the flight and was happy to see Matt at the baggage claim.

Millie is staying with my parents for the next month. Besides waking them in the middle of the night because she’s jetlagged, she’s adjusting well.
