Giving in

to Temptation at Manchester Airport.

I love the way airlines try hard to make travel exciting. When we flew to Vienna last year we were supposed to have a comfortable hour to make a connection at Munich. Storms reduced that to an athletic ten minutes.

Today, we are scheduled to have 2 hours 25 minutes to catch our connecting flight in Dubai. We are now told the flight from here will be 1 hour 45 late. I have started my stretching exercises and loading-up with carbohydrates. Such fun.
