Saturday 1 September 2007

Quite pissed off because the colleagues who made my travel arrangements thought it a brilliant idea for me to leave Lisbon Saturday morning at 7 a.m., which meant waking up at 5, rush into a cab and then wait for 1 hour in an airport in which everything was closed except for a lousy cafeteria full of old Brits returning from holidays. Bleah....! Ultimately, anti-tobacco laws didn’t hinder me having 2 cigarettes.

A window seat and the bird’s eye views on a crystal clear morning flying over the Pyrenees have miraculously improved my state of mind.....

....and the taste of the coffee on board.


could this foothpath be....the famous Camino de Santiago, aka Path of Saint James ?

It surely looks divine from up here.....

Crossing into the Bay of Biscay, right near Santander.
