Part 1 of trip

I am sleep deprived and in Zurich airport. This has to be the emptiest airport I have ever seen. There is no one around me excpet for a woman selling swiss chocolate. I might go check that out in a while. Or not. Carrying around a heavy backpack is not as fun as I imagined.

My flight here was ok. Air Canada is not as bad as some people told me it would be. The seats were ok, the food was fine. (although they did serve only a muffin and coffee for breakfast, which was at 12 midnight, canadian time) the movies were pretty ok too.

I got an aisle seat in the middle row so I couldn’t really see much out of the window and anyway, I kept glancing over so often that the guy sitting there probably thought I was checking him out. But the view from my seat of Zurich as the flight was descending was very beautiful. Very green and golf-course like.

They had a couple of episodes from the Office which I watched. I also watched My Life in Ruins starring the lovely greek woman from My Big Fat Greek Wedding but this movie was just ok. Nothing great. Then, I found X-Men Origins:Wolverine and OMG! Hugh Jackman.. Spectacular! Wow. Just amazing!!! I loved it! I wanna go back and watch all the X-men movies.. what a sad ending. :’( and Ryan Reynolds was in it too.. *sigh* I heart him.. (I wish he had a longer role though)

The woman who sat next to me watched no movies. She only looked at the map of the flight and flight information. She seemed nice enough but four hours into the flight and there it was… horrible bad breath. She wasn’t talking to me but she would.. I don’t know.. breathe and then I could smell it. Oh goodness. terrible terrible. I hope I don’t have to go through that again. I thought of offering her some gum or toothpaste but I thought that would be very impolite.
There are several magazines next to but they’re all in the.. uh… language of Switzerland. Not very helpful. I guess I’ll just go back to reading Breaking Dawn.

Oh look, there are people now. brown people too! Who would’ve thought.
Next flight in 70 mins.

    oh man! sitting next to someone with bad breath on an airplane is the WORST!! even if they’re obese and overflowing into your seat, i don’t mind cuz you can somehow ignore them. but bad breath and smells in general are pretty awful!! glad to see you’ve got your movie fix. see, isn’t it fun to blog when you’re traveling?

    so last night before i slept i noticed a spider by the front door just hanging in the air. and i was too tired to deal with the drama of killing it, i told myself that at least they eat the rest of the bugs and let him be. this morning i return to find him still hanging there with a HUGE, no i mean HUGE, web like going across the front door!! i considered our bug spray, but then decided i didn’t want to be breathing in all those fumes. i ended up making that pizza last night so i used the big box to attempt to slam (for lack of a better word) him. anyways, i think i killed him and that web appears to be gone for the time being. ugh!!
