airports

I don't really like them any more.

How come when I switch planes, they have to dust off my backpack for explosvies before they'll put it on the next one? I didn't exactly have a chance to umm, put explosive stuff on my backpack from taking it off the baggage check and bringing it to the baggage check-in.

And how come everyone gives me so much trouble over hand inspecting film EXCEPT the US? They're so paranoid about everything else, and yet they're okay with hand inspecting film! I had so much problems in Bruxelles and Madrid! I had to talk to the supervisor, and insist (to scary spanish men in uniform and everything!)

Well my 25 hour voyage is nearly complete. I think. I think I only have another ummm 10 hours or so to go? I think american airlines food is the most disgusting thing I've ever put in my mouth.

I kind of forgot to mail lots of postcards and all that stuff, I didn't even buy a pair of shoes like I wanted! All I saw of Madrid yesterday was 3 hours in the middle of the night, but it seemed nice after a 7 hour bus ride.

I met a few grandparents this trip. I like grandparents, sometimes they're crazy but it's always in a good way. Somehow they thought I needed half a kilo of cheese for just me, but actually it's good cheese and it's almost gone.

hasta luego!
