We're Here!

After 29 hours of travel, we arrived safely "chez nous." It was a very boring trip on the whole, which is exactly how we like it. Here is a brief overview:

8:00 shuttle to the airport
8:30 Got our tickets from a rather helter-skelter agent at the airport and watched our bags being dumped on the conveyor to baggageland.
8:45 Stopped in security because my wife was trying to sneak out of the country with one of those gel-filled wrist support things in her hand luggage. For shame!
9:00 Found our gate, then went to find my cousin's fiancée. She works in one of the vendor booths at the airport. It was a slow morning so we managed to monopolize most of an hour.
12:00 boarded the plane to stop #1
2:40 Landed at stop #1
3:00 found our next gate, then walked from one end of the terminal to the other and back again in search of a sandwich that cost less than $7. Finally found Subway, which was faithfully selling $5 Footlongs. Hurray!
4:40 Just settling into our seats on the next flight when we heard an announcement that something on the plane broke and they were calling mechanics to fix it.
6:30ish finally underway.
1:15 AM 2 movies and a couple hours of restless sleep later, we landed at stop #2
1:30 got through security more quickly because this time my wife put her deadly and volatile wrist support in a separate tray
6:00 after a slight delay, we boarded our last flight
11:00 Landed at our destination
11:30 got through security
12:30 finally completed the visa process and retrieved our luggage
12:45 colleague drove us to our apartment
And so, after 29 hours of travel, we arrived. We had supper, unpacked most of our bags, sent a quick email, and finally went to bed at about 5:00 (10 PM local time).

When we woke up, the fun began...
