Thu 9 September 2004 - She’s almost back
The three weeks is over, Marita and Justine return from Europe to the real world today. The airport web site says their plane is running an hour late, but hey, given the distance they’re coming, that’s not too bad.
There will be photos and tales of the European summer heat, historic buildings and ruins, long bus trips to catacombs that were closed, searches for working telephones in Vienna, cobbled streets in Bratislava, Vatican treasures, Roman birds dropping Roman birdshit, hydrofoil rides down the Danube, difficult to pronounce Hungarian words, fabulous views from ancient cathedral towers, and many more.
I can’t wait.
PS. Judging from the Changi airport web site, some kind of delay at Singapore. Gotta love the web.
