Long story short - Air Baltic has apparently very very strict regulations on letting passengers on the plane and I did not qualify :D Basically the magical visa printout was a stopper (Kaisa, they did not accept your version! Can you believe this??) and here I am in Riga airport waiting for my flight to Munich via Stockholm. From Munich I have hopes to get to Dubai by tomorrow evening.
Uh traveling is fun as always, sitting in airports is not, but adrenaline kicks rock :D
All this precious free time I got now and here are the results:
Top 50 funny computer quotes work e-mail reading pays off well, perhaps should connect to Yammer as well, probably more goodies are waiting there :)
I have already watched 3 episodes of Californication, 8 more to go. I have a selection on movies to choose from: up in the air, the cove, the reader, state of play, seraphine, moon, public enemies, disgrace, bright star
I learned that there was a pearl market collapse around 1930's, year 1966 oil was found in Dubai - and after this the world was never the same :) 1971 Britain left the Persian Gulf and 1973 Dubai joined the other emirates in United Arab Emirates. Today the area has become known for its ambitious building projects or artificial islands and tallest ever buildings and biggest malls and so on.
My task list has numerous rows about training plans, competition guides to complete and e-mails to reply to.. so back to being productive I go :) Will try to keep you updated on my doings!
Oh and just a note about Riga airport - it is a horrible horrible place to be. First of all it is kinda cold in here, it is small, not very clean, here are no eating places (except this one pizza place which provides items that does not qualify for food) and all the smokers use toilets for smoking as there seems to be no separate area for them :( A horrible horrible place to be (well, right next to Hanoi airport I guess). At least they got wireless! It's not for free, but it is cheap.. and it works well.
As one of my friend's status message read: take a chill pill and relax!

NO Nii !!!!Reisimine polegi ainult lust ja lillepidu. Vahel on parem kodus olla, eriti kui on -15 C ja tuiskab. Hea on toas istuda, aknast vaadata lumetormi. Ma ei kujuta ette, et naudiksin kusagil suplemist! Loodan, et oma sünnipäeva saad ikka Dubais tähistada. Uute paremate uudisteni
Kallistades! M & mehed
Täiesti nõus sina, et Riia lennujaam on täielik peldik, mitte midagi pole teha seal ning isegi söömisega pole võimalik oma ootetunde mööda saata:) Aga igaljuhul loodan, et Stockholmist pääsed ilusti Dubai lennukile ning naudid varsti mõnusat sooja päikest!!!
Ja mõtle siis korraks homme ka minule, kes ma miinus 15 kraadi juures sõrmed külmast sinised Tartu suusamaratoni finishisse trüüvin. Muah ja kalli!
hei hei kodused :)
siin münhenis on küll täielik kevad, temperatuur on +5 ja lumi sulab särinal. kõikide eeluste kohaselt peaksin ikka homme õhtuks Dubaisse jõudma. kui ei jõua siis vahetan pileti egiptuse reisi vastu või midagi :-P
sille - homme mõtlen teile kõigile ja elan lennukis teile kaasa. palun tulemused ja emotsioonid veebi/FB üles panna :) ole tubli siis ikka ja ära üle pinguta!
kalli-kalli!
Järjekordne näide sellest kui väike on maailm- ka mina olin 20.02 Müncheni lennujaamas ning võin Su sõnu kinnitada- väljas oli +5, päike paistis ja lumi sulas. Tallinnas oli samal hommikul külllm külllm lumetorm :D
ohoh Terje... ja miks ei olnud tweeti selle kohta ;) ... hea meelega oleks kellegiga koos lõbusalt aega veetnud
