I had to get up very early to catch the morning flight to Odessa. It was not a non stop, Prague was included in the price. Helsfyr is a blessing in disguise when you are a travellingexplorer. Buses goes to Gardemoen only 7 minutes from my apartment. Buses every 20 minute is a great rate for a countryman from Hellandshamn, where buses is a dead business.
Check- in and all that stuff was finished in 10 minutes, not bad on a busy Saturday morning . 7 minutes walk, 33 minutes busride, 10 minutes through the system, and 2 minutes to my gate, wow, I have spare time, too much to handle!
Prague for the first time in fact. The airport quite unmodern and boring. One Pilsner Urquell had to be tasted. Not that tasty, I have to say very dissapointing. Checz is famous for their brewery, but this was an utter failure. I give it three eyes on the dice, nothing more! Nothing can beat the Amstel from Amsterdam, serwed in the dark cafe next to Hotel Linda. Thats the limit, breweries!
Airbus machines are quite tidy, nice white lines. But still no Wi-Fi onboard. I was hoping that this was the trip I finally would endore the facilities, but no. Almost an empty plane makes it very comfortable anyway. Karpaty is the city belowe us the screen let us know. 850 km per hour, marching on to Odessa, excited!
Before landing I thought about the romours, will they be true. Police who stops you on every corner asking for passport? The most elegant and beautiful girls in Europe? East meet west? Mafia? And what about the taxidrivers?
