Germany 2019 - Day 8

Today is a travel day.



We started this morning with breakfast at the hotel, then headed to get our car that was in the parking garage for almost over 3 days since we used public transportation.  Headed off to the airport about a 30 minute drive.  As we got closer to the airport it was sure foggy again, just like when we arrived in Munich.  AA says "not the best place for an airport if it is always foggy".




Arriving at the airport, we dropped the car off with no issues, and headed to the airport terminal.  No other issues, security was long, but moving, and the passport verification didn't work through the automation, so we had to wait for another line, but no problems. Don't worry there was a smoking room right out our gate.





We knew the flight was full and that someone was going to sit in our row with us.  AA was worried it was going to be a big burly man, but to our surprise it was a 12 year old girl, traveling alone from Germany all the way to Victoria, through Toronto and Vancouver.  First thing she did was ask AA to help her put her bag up, as she was not tall enough.  We were amazed with her confidence.  She also drank 4 coffees and 2 glasses of coke on the flight, and was so into all the movie and games she played.  She had comforting stuffy and pillow to help her through the journey.



The flight was 8 hours and 5 minutes in the air.  Lola watched movies and TV, went to the washroom twice and had a good nap (photos by AA). Too bad she had a window seat without the window...





AA napped first thing, watched movies, went to the washroom when Lola did and did some work. (12 year old girl pictured here)



Arriving in Toronto, we had no issues going through  customs, and had to clear security again, as we went where there was Nexus Line.  Lola wasn't happy that she had to drink all her water and get through security again, but survived.
View out the window behind Lola.


She was very hungry so first stop once through security was food.  We both had curry from Mill Street, AA having a beer, and Lola drinking free water!



We arrived at our gate, and find it is delayed.... and delayed.... then change of gate and plane.  Now we are scheduled to leave 2 hours later, and on a bigger plane.  Good thing there was a 9 week old puppy to keep us a little entertained, and some starbucks!







The trip was great, but can't wait to sleep in our own bed, when we get home!

Thanks for reading., Till next time,

Lola.
