Up early for a seven o’clock taxi to the airport. The hotel had a bagged breakfast ready for us. Dolora and I found our gate and got coffees. Lots of soccer fans dressed in green and white flying to Zurich. Must be a big match. I think the green and white shirts are Sevilla.
The one hour flight from Sevilla to Lisbon was on time. A rare occurrence was a passport control officer in a good mood. Dolora greeted him with -Buenos dias- and he corrected her and told her she was in Portugal not Spain. There was a second security check at the gate. Then a bus ride to board the plane.
Flight back to Dulles was on time. The Mobile Passport Control, MPC, app saves a long line at the airport but you have to remember to have downloaded it before you get on the plane. It is not available at all airports but you can hope your airport is listed in the app. A five minute wait for an Uber and we were on the way home during rush hour. Nice to be back home.
