The Delegation's last day in Russia began with a 3 a.m. hotel check out and bus transfer to the St. Petersburg Rail Station for our four-hour train ride to Moscow Station, followed by another bus transfer to Moscow's Sheremetyevo Airport for our return flights home. The student's had their last meal together at TGI Friday's at the airport departure concourse before Frenchie caught his flight to Paris and the rest of us boarded our plane for our ten-hour flight to JFK.
Arrival at JFK, less Frenchie, who is spending the remainder of his summer in France; Connor, who was picked up by his parents at the Arrivals Terminal; and Patrick and Steven, who along with Prof. Sugermeyer went to find a restroom before the three-hour bus ride back to WNE. But of those in this photo evidencing our safe return, their expressions speak volumes about the nature of this experience, exhausting and exhilarating at the same time!
