Travelling home on friday was always going to be tough with 4 bags and 3 ski bags, but after an enormous excess baggage charge, i made it on to the plane… albeit just! I was kind of late.
After waiting 2 hours on the runway waiting for 1 remaining passenger, we got underway. 30 mins before landing in London Heathrow we found out it had just closed due to a snow storm. We missed landing by 30 mins… all because of 1 selfish woman in Calgary!!
Paris was over run. With 4 Air Canada jumbo jets stranded, we waited 7 hours for a hotel, and then another 3 hours for buses. It turned out i didnt make it to the hotel. Meeting some cool people in the Airport we all bedded down for the night. Well for a couple hours and an hour sleep. Finding out the next day that the airport still wasnt going to open… I rushed with all 200kg of baggage to the local train to make my way to the Eurostar… Lets just say those train journey’s were HELL!!!! But im home and i love it.
So Merry Xmas everybody (oops i got trouble for saying that in America) – happy holidays everyone!
This was my last few days in Pano warming up full suit in the dark… its like skiing blind! Vic ate it pretty hard…
