A story: When my daughter was two she asked me, "When are we home? 
Sometimes you say we are home when we drive by the school and sometimes 
when we come down the street and sometimes when we are parking and 
sometimes when we come in the door. When are we home?"

I thought about it and realized it was related to how far away we had 
been. After an airplane trip, the airport felt like home. If I was 
returning from a visit to a neighbor across the hall, I only felt "home" 
when I had not only entered my apartment but also closed my door.

... and when I went on a trip to New Zealand and Australia for three 
weeks, I felt back home when I landed in Los Angeles!
