Two planes and two complicated trains later…
Long flight but cool part was that every person had a tv monitor in front of them with access to free movies, tv shows and music. Awkward was a stewardess parking her cart beside me and sitting on me four times. Psht, no sleep whatsoever the whole flight but we arrived initially in Iceland to watch the sunrise over the vast horizon.
We had our hotel booked but no way to get there. Started off with an express train and then hopped around two other random trains/tubes. With 14 hours of flying time and no sleep, we were a LITTLE delirious and kept forgetting directions people would give us.
Even with all the special-ness, we found our hotel. And since then have grabbed food and wandered the streets in the waning light of day. Dinner was a baguette, laughing cow cheese (a little piece of home) and ham. I also gave in and stopped in a bakery to grab a Belgium chocolate muffin. That plus the Starbucks we found during our street wandering made the night a delicious one
