First of all, more than happy to finally be in the home where i've spent half of my childhood. Even more overjoyed finding that my oldest brother, Gvidas, also decided to come home for a few days. Did not see him a long time.
The trip itself was not as smooth as hoped. After giving guinnea pigs to Giannis in the early afternoon, we drove to the Queen street train station. Arived early there, so decided to get some food after getting the tickets. That is where my paranoia messed things up. This years experience on the way back from Canterbury to Glasgow made me always be in the airport or train station way before we need to departure. SO, my constant nagging in the queue in The burger king lead to running to an overflown train to Edinburgh. When i say overflown, i mean "fish in a can" packed. Train was full with wasted, yelling, laughing like animals Glasgwegian people. It was like half of east side of Glasgow decided to board the same train with us. After an hour of mental torture arrived in the Edinburgh. Both of our starvation lead to almost running to the Burger King where our morale was restored.
Afterwards, just a smooth ride to airport and with the power of priority boarding got seats in first aisle. Just the guy in the check-in managed to mess up with our luggage. He put the same number for two different baggages so I have to have a talk with the "luggage lady" which promised that everything will be fine - just needed to double check.
Smooth flight. Very proud of Ksenia as she spent most of the flight watching Desperate Housewives and not worrying about all the turbulence. I've even managed to read a book for more than an hour (this never happened before). A very decent landing, fast luggage pick-up and after 30 mins were home where hot Cepelinai were waiting for me. This is the real ambrosia in this world.
That's all so far. Let the vacation BEGIN!
