I am in Frankfurt now.

I am not supposed to be in Frankfurt.

Specifically, I’m not supposed to be in its airport. Earlier…

Had an amazing time hiking in the mountains of Switzerland. Met with Swiss German friends from Barcelona. That was Bern. Then on Sunday, I returned to München.

Dinner at Augustiner’s. Many did not make it cuz of the late announcements. (Though I’m surprised the Italians I included in the massmail actually emailed to apologise for not making it – I didn’t really expect you guys to come, but how could I do this without telling you guys anyhow? Still the greatest, you kids!) But those who did – Mingxia, Tolis, Meera, Hadi and Maria – made it really hard for me to leave Munich no matter what I said.

But details later.

More importantly me apartmentmate Josef drove me to the Flughafen in the afternoon where I was supposed to take a flight to Amsterdam first, then KL. Maria was predicting a storm in Munich yesterday that never quite materialised despite some hefty gales that nearly blew us away (we were stuffed into her less-than-humungous car).

Apparently she sent it to Amsterdam.

(I can hear her cackling now, the wench…)

This means I’m diverted to Frankfurt now, then Singapore before getting home. I can hear you guys laughing now. Yes, me favourite place in the world – Singapore. Prolly retribution for something, I dunno what.

The good news is I’ll be travelling by SIA (Singapore Airlines) from here onwards. Weird that in spite of me partriotic freindly rivalry with the Singaporeans (it’s like the Yankee-Canuck thing), me fav airlines is SIA. Bloody enjoyable. So this detour is well worth it, methinks.

If for nothing else, the free Internet in Frankfurt Flughafen.
