Day 183 – The End is Here

There was no continental breakfast at this hotel so that is why I ordered a large pizza last night. I figured I could use one last Papa John’s pizza plus I could have the leftovers for breakfast. Furthermore, all the coupon offers I have been getting from Papa John’s e-newsletter usually only apply to large pizzas.

It was nicer day today w/no rain except a small 5 min sprinkle during the game. The Blue Jays finished the season w/a win ending my odyssey on a good note.

I grabbed something to eat after the game before picking up my bags from the hotel and making my way down to the greyhound station. I was hoping to make a 6:40 bus that would get me home 4.5 hrs ahead of the next bus that left at 8:30.

I made the 6:40 bus and was on my way home. The bus went through Pennsylvania and New York and there were a number of stops along the way. Eventually though I made it home bringing an end to my odyssey.

It was an absolutely amazing experience, I couldn’t ask for anything more (other than the Jays making the playoffs). If the situation were right I would love to do it again, but for now it is back to the real world of working 5 days a week.

One last set of handshakes
