Safe at home in Amsterdam
Apr. 16th, 2010 05:42 amIn brief. We got our car to Istanbul airport in good time after exploring the Topkapi Palace. Interesting to see Abraham's saucepan and Moses's staff. Impressed by the decorations.
Long queue for security, short queue for our Heathrow flight. Errr. No flight.
"Eruption in Iceland," the clerk said, showing us a printed bulletin.
"Don't do it again!" I wagged my finger at him, making him personally responsible for eruptions. He smiled.
Ticket office found - after a short but extremely worrying wait - a direct flight to Amsterdam on Turkish Airlines, so we arrived three hours earlier and had better food.
Shuttle to our hotel which had our booked room available, met up with Mojosmom for dinner, and postprandials with Crrcookie and Melydia before we started falling asleep.
Today is a quick flip through the galleries, followed by the convention meet'n'greet, where I fear some longed-for faces may not be visible.
