Arrival

[dlritchie]

The trip started out with a 30 minute delay leaving Chicago but our pilot did his best race car driver impression and got us to Rome 20 minutes ahead of our scheduled landing.  Long travel day -- Indy to Chicago by car then 9 hours flying followed by 40 minutes on the train to get to the hotel a few hours ahead of checking in.  The good news is they held our bags so we could explore.  Last check was almost 11,000 steps in just a few hours.  My american feet are not used to this!

For anyone curious, O'Hare to Aeroporto di Roma Fiumicino is only 4,963 miles
