Sahnewölkchen

Today was largely spent travelling to Germany.

The airport was heaving and chaotic! Flybe have done away with their staff at check in. I always check in online anyway but you now have to check in your own suitcase! Boy did it cause chaos, queues and tantrums! No tantrums from me I hasten to add, but then I just about (and only just about) worked out what to do and after reading instructions several times managed to work out how to put on the ticket tag, which bit to peel off and stick on the case, which bit to stick on my passport etc

I was glad to get to the gate area ...which was full of armed police! No idea what that was all about, but isn't it funny how you automatically go into 'I must just walk through here normally and behave normally because I have nothing to hide' mode!?


Anyway all worth it to see my mum and dad! I had hoped that my dad would have been up to meeting me with my mum at the train station but maybe next time! He looks better than he did last time I saw him... a step in the right direction :-)

We sat out in the garden till it got dark! Nice weather predicted again for tomorrow :-)
