Arriving at the Airport

We checked in, went through security, turned in our valued added tax refund forms and grabbed something to eat and a little food to take with us on the plane.  Our plane was on time and we were on our way back to JFK.  Of all the airport we've used, JFK seems to be one of the most organized.  But we ended up standing in as line unnecessarily because we could not see the sign that said US citizens should stay to the left, where there was almost no line at all.  After  claiming our luggage and going through customs, I exchanged the British currency that I still had on me and then we found the train though took us to the car rental.  Before long we were on the road.  But not so fast!  It took well over an hour to get to the George Washington Bridge, inching along on the Cross Bronx Expressway.  We stopped for a meal at the Perkins in Stroudsburg, PA.  The four hour difference and getting up at 5:00 am Icelandic time was getting to us.  But we arrived home safely and went right to bed.
