I have made it to Vienna! Well, to be precise, I have made it to the Vienna Airport Hotel which is about 100 meters from baggage claim at the airport. Downtown Vienna is a few miles away and I don’t think I will be seeing that anytime soon.
The first set of flights were uneventful except for turbulence flying through a storm from AVL to ATL. My luggage made it fine and that is a HUGE plus
Overall the 5,000+ mile trip took 21 hours (door to door). Not too bad considering I had to go through customs in Frankfurt.
After arriving at the hotel I have slept a few hours and now my big decision is to: a) do some more prep work for the upcoming meeting in Blantyre, b) walk a mile to a Geocache, or c) fall back asleep…..
So far, spending “quality time” with the pillow is looking like the best option.
