Amsterdam has been pleasant. We got in at 6am and were able to crash in the KLM lounge till boarding at 10. Boarding was easy and civilized. We had a pleasant chat with a gentleman from LA who is also going on safari. He's getting ready to retire and using up all his sick leave by doing three trips a year. But he's getting tired!
Its pretty clear that this is a tourist flight. The aircraft is full with most everyone in kaki sporting a backpack of some sort. Quite a number of three generation parties with gramps reading the grandkids from the guidebook.
We've been sitting here in the plane for awhile and it was just announced that we'll here awhile longer - at least another 1.5 hrs.. Apparently things are especially hot in Libya right now so everything is being diverted around it which clogs up the lanes. Somehow the headaches in Greece add into this as well. Not quite sure how that plays into it.
Not going to stop Melanie from catching some Z's

Yikes! Stay safe.
ReplyDeleteI like the 3 generation idea. Let's plan for that for the next safari :)
