feb 9

i lost a day in there somewhere ...

here i am in copenhagen!
flight was good, uneventful.
my six hour layover in amsterdam was nuts.
went through security complete with xrays to get to my gate, found my gate to be small and cold, asked about showers and was told i had to go back to the other end of the terminal, so another passport check and stamp. showered for fifteen euros in a facility that was not worth it (letter to be written), ate some fast food (mayo at mcdonalds in holland is basically tartar sauce?), napped in some 'comfort chairs' and then went through security complete with xrays again, went to my gate, found that it had been switched, spent 25 min finding new gate, read book. phew.

got into copenhagen at 1030 pm, got my suitcase, spent 10 min figuring out the train, bought a ticket, waited. an announcement happened on the platform in danish and everyone around me moved down the platform, so i followed.. got a train, *actually* got off at the right stop! and was found by amalie and allan! and lucifer too!

walked to the homestead, settled a bit and tried to sleep.

the first day was all over. i napped and woke up and napped.
taking a night time flight when you dont sleep well on planes to go to a place that is nine hours ahead will take its toll!

yesterday, once i was up, amalie and i wandered to the pharmacy so she could get some things, then we picked up some snacks and headed back home. we both have colds currently, so there are alot of various drops being taken and tea drank. and kleenex used. and hand sanitizer. good times! i hope we kick these soon.

watched loads of star trek tng as well. always a good remedy.

i think today i am back on track as far as time goes. ill shower eventually here and bundle up and maybe head out to some shops and to explore a bit. either that or ill read the camera manual im currently downloading, as i brought the french version with me. way to go me! .....
