OK, that's the bird I have to trust my life with. I'm pretty nervous. The last time I traveled by plane was nine years ago.

A last look at the airport of Luebeck before the start.

The airport of London Stansted is bigger than I expected - and overcrowded.

We have to wait a few hours for Yorrick and Asha. The best place to do so is the airport bar (from left to right: Demon, Ulrica, Wishmaster and Bran).

Finally, Asha has arrived (from left to right: Demon behind Ulrica, Asha, Bran and Wishmaster).

At midnight in the middle of nowhere (though an educated guess says somewhere in Mullingar) we and our luggage stand waiting for some kind of transportation. (from left to right: Bran, Asha, Demon and Yorrick)

Obviously still at the same location.(from left to right: a bit of Yorrick, Bran and Asha)
