It's finished. We are going back home.
After packing our bags we all met on the upper deck to play an ultimate game of UNO.
At 12.15 we said goodbye to Mervat and the rest of the group who were continuing their voyage.
As our mini-group travelled together we felt on holiday until the arrival in Paris where we said goodbye to each other after luggage reclaim.
In the aircraft I had the possibility to take pictures of the Nile and desert. It was splendid. The desert is far from being flat. When the Nile is seen, you can distinguish perfectly the valley with green field and the desert. It is surprising to see a so frank rupture. I wonder even how certain pieces can be green whereas they are surrounded by desert.
Christelle and I went to the Invalids to sleep to one of my mother's friend whom I didn't see for a very long time. I was really happy that she can lodge us.
Sunday morning, we left for London and I was in a hurry to meet my men.
Arthur saw Christelle first and smiled nicely to her. When he saw me his smile was multiplied by ten and remained in this position for the 20 next minutes. I think that he was happy to see me again. Since then he has a bad time to see me leaving when I bring him at Fiona's and he follows me everywhere in the house. He has problem to fall asleep when I put him in bed. I think that he is anxious that I will leave again, but next time that I leave it is with him and his dad. Promis.
However he had fun with his dad, until the last day!
