Apr 23,After landing in Boston and then going to New York to sign off.
We were feeling good to be in the good old usa.  We kind of relaxed and decided to take it easy going home.  We had left home in Winfield abot 17 months ago with about 60 bucks apiece and were back in the United States with about $200 a piece . so we decided to take a bus home.. We were still independent and proud of our adventure.

To our knowedge our folks did not know we were on our last lap.

The bus was faster than the Mosbay but not by much..
Home Home Sweet Home.
