La Paz to Kansass City

We all had an early start leaving for the airport in the dark then checking in for our flight back to LA while waiting to board we took the opportunity for a group photo.

The only group photo of the trip.

The flight to LA was the reverse of the trip down with a stop in Lorreto on the way. We landed in LA and collected our luggage I said a quick goodbye to the others as I had a different flight to them. I was going to Kansas City via Saltlake City and they were to Springfield via dallas. I got stopped at the final security check and searched I only just mannaged to make the flight in time.
The flight leg to saltlake city was smooth and I then changed planes for the short hop to Kansass city.

The steward on the plane made a comment about my fins as we boarded so once we were settled I asked how he recognised them as freediving fins. We had a good conversation and it turned out he was a retired SAT diver and also freedived. I arrived late in the evening around 9.30pm and was it cold I still had on the same clothes I was wearing in Baja. My friends Traffton and Kerrie live nearby in Lees Summit and met me at the airport and I spent the night at their place. I had also met them 2 years previously in Honduras so we sat up for a while catching up over some rum and beer.then off to bed for some much needed sleep. Pinky was driving up in the morning to pick me up and take me back to Springfield to spend the week with the rest of the group. I was also going to catch up with the rest of the group from Honduras that I hadnt seen so far.
