Day Four - We don't wanna go home yet!

Hearing our alarms that morning sucked. We didn't want to leave. Reluctantly, we got up and dressed, blah blah blah. We made sure everything was in either our check on bags, or our carry-ons. Before heading to the saloon for our last breakfast, we made sure our bags were outside of our room, so the staff could grab them to put on the bus. We had to wait in the saloon for about two hours before our bus was ready to leave. We ended up wandering around outside for a bit, having fun taking pictures of the cool buildings and signs. It was kind of nice, since we were the first bus to get to the ranch, and the last one to leave, so we had the most time there...
















But it also was sad because we got to watch all our cool couples leave before us. I was close to almost crying a few times. When we turned our room keys in, they gave both of us leather bound photo albums, with pictures taken by ranch staff. It was our last gift from the ranch.
Once the bus got there, we reluctantly boarded, watching as the ranch faded behind us. The trip back to the airport was beautiful though, so we were able to enjoy that. At the airport, we got our luggage and checked in, James getting one more smoke in before heading through security. As we waited for the plane to arrive, we discovered some of the staff and security would be on the same plane as us! It was also nice that we were sitting near the security from the ranch because the plane got delayed and ranch security immediately called Marlboro to make sure everything would go okay. A few of the security staff ended up getting booked on different planes, but one security, and two ranch staff stayed on our flight, and sat near us. It felt like we were able to enjoy the ranch for just a bit longer. After that things went how they should have, for the most part...

  1. Are you paying over $5 for each pack of cigarettes? I'm buying my cigarettes over at Duty Free Depot and this saves me over 70% on cigarettes.
