We're all settled in for this one. That lack of finality of getting to and from is nerve wracking to me. I hate loose ends. It did cost more in the miles department, but, if I hadn't booked it before tax season, I'd have too much to think about.

We originally booked the 1st half of the crossing for 2006 but cancelled when we started planning the flights and ended up book 2007's Grand Crossing back. The flight home was almost the same price as just doing the full crossing.
