You keep what you kill

I think we've never had such a smooth arrival before. Plane was fifteen minutes ahead of schedule, no queues St immigration, baggage out immediately (thank you my Greek frineds), no customs hold up... Picked up car and sim card immediately from arrivals hall within another few minutes, 15mins drive to accommodation, brush teeth, go to sleep. Fantastic. Monday morning we went for a stroll in the botanical garden, bought some food and took off towards Lamington National Park. A very easy drive, nearly no traffic on the road. A quick pit stop in Canungra was topped off with a nice apple cinnamon muffin and orange almond cake at laid-back, vegetarian friendly cafe "earthly delights". We got to lamington early, at 1pm, but were lucky again because our room was ready. We are staying at O'Reilly's rainforest retreat in the green mountains section of the park. Monday and Tuesday had brilliant weather, today, Wednesday is a bit on-off with clouds passing through bit no ra

Gotta love this place. Chillin out and getting ready for the last leg to brizzy. Peace out. 🐊 🐊 🐊

We made it. We were on time at the airport this time. :-) what a feat of German efficiency and punctuality. And even better, we made it to FRA ahead of time, with five hours to kill until the next flight to SIN. Thanks to our Greek friends of Aegean we're enjoying the senator lounge, catching up on some breakfast and chilling out in general. Couple of hours to go and then we're off to nicer shores for a couple of weeks. BTW, I find it extremely embarrassing for Google that attaching pictures to blog posts still doesn't work, the bloody app crashes all the time. 🐊 🐊 🐊

The best thing about this movie: I can write about before having seen it. Commercials are about to start, but I already know that this is the greatest movie ever! Ever! The greatest. I'm sooooooo excited. I love it already. I love the world.

Well, the BA and Tegel airport morons really managed to fuck this up. My luggage never left the airport but could not be retrieved since a) too much personnel is on sick leave and b) those that are working really don't want to work too hard. Take it easy, because THEY DON'T GIVE A FUCK about you. When I look at these people, how they performed, what kind of "service" they delivered ... I can only say that I hope robots will do their jobs rather sooner than later. If these guys were animals you would have to put them down because they are fucking useless. Fucking useless morons, fuck you BA and fuck you Globe Ground. If I were a farmer I would gather all the manure in a giant truck and deliver it to you doorstep. You are a fucking disgrace. No more BA ever. Period. At least I'll get to enjoy the nice spring weather at home and avoid airline food and entertainment.

This will sound like a very cheap movie script. But it's fucking real. So I was supposed to fly from Berlin to Portland, Oregon today, through London and Seattle. We're standing at the gate, waiting to board, when they make the announcement that the flight has been cancelled. Fuck yeah. So we're supposed to pick up our luggage, go out landside again, to the BA ticket counter and they will rebook. Well, first problem, luggage isn't there. Second problem, there's one and a half guy at the tiny counter only for 300 passengers. Finally, they reticket me, later flight to lhr, then via Vancouver to pdx. And they tell me to get my luggage from A05. A05 tells me to go to lost and found, which is a ten minute walk, another 40 minutes queue. They know nothing about my luggage. Meanwhile check in closure time approaches, so back to the check in counter. They suggest I fly without my luggage. I tell them to Fuck off. So I can't board the reticketed flight either. Another 45
