I came on a bit of an express Euro trip. Yesterday I was in Vienna, had a flight booked to Barcelona, flying out from Bratislava. I stuffed around for ages, missed the plane. So I am taking a much more expensive route back. I caught an overnight train to Zurich, now I am waiting in Zurich Flughafen for a plane to take me to London Luton Airport. Tomorrow I fly out from Heathrow, back to Australia. That's going to be a long trip.

I was looking forward to some beautiful spring weather this trip, as all I hear from Canberra is that it's so cold. Unfortunately it's probably just as cold here. I need to do something special in the next couple of days to make it a memorable trip.
