Praha! (oops- this should have posted 2 days ago)

So we did have to go the "first a little mongo" or a lot of it for that matter, but we are here. In a nice hotel that left us a chocolate cake to honor our anniversary. I just ate most of it. It was dark when we got here even though it was only 4pm (but 20 hours after we left). Let me backtrack to when we landed in Brussels (while F showers). We strong armed our way to get off first and an airport rep told us to go to Gate A43. We were in the B terminal and had seen on the map that it was right next door. It was about 9:30am and the last flight that would not fuck our day left at that same time. We ran like mofos thinking it might be delayed. A43 was our mantra and we covered no less than a mile on people movers, stairs and elevators. Well there was a flight that had just left for Stockholm and two Swedish unfriendly employees there who had not idea what we were talking about. We had to go all the way back to B (this included immigration and security again) where we meandered until we found the Indian airline desk (where we should have been directed to initially). Bad news was the next flight was at 1pm and on Lufthansa (puke) but the good news is that we went to the lounge (from F's glory days of traveling status) and ate and drank and listened to SERIAL (free podcast I recommend). We flew to Munich and learned some interesting facts. GIFTE means poison in German and I could not help feeling that they were going to do that to me. Free newspapers and coffee everywhere (how quaint) as well as lovely Camel huts for smokers with cool colorful camels and death warnings painted on them. Interesante. In Munich we lounged some more. They did not have the napboxes (a private sleeping room) that Brussels did but there was beer and pork stuff that we did not consume. More SERIAL and more of my persecution complex as I remembered that this airport was the finale site for the slaying of Israeli athletes in the 1978 Olympics. My racism aside, we enjoyed this airport tour as much as possible and finally made it to PRAHA. Yippee! We are off for an evening walk and dinner. Tomorrow is THE day to enjoy here as we leave at the crack o dawn on Saturday. To our adventure! Thank you F!
