I woke up this morning at 4am, rushing and packing the last stuff in the bags. Had to be sure to be at the airport at 5.30am.
On the way there i was just talking to my webslave that since its a holiday in Holland and so early it should be a relaxed check in, security and boarding….oooh boy, was i soooo wrong!!!!
I ve never seen that airport so crowded in my whole life (and believe me i travel alot from there), unbelievable! The cues to check in were huge, butt even worse were the cues to go through security check… i couldnt believe my eyes!
As that wasnt bad enough, i did my check in online, but at the bagage dropoff there was this big mistake, so i had to pay for my luggage and the whole extra weight i had… more time lost, had to run to the chashier to pay…135eur:/
as i stayed on the line waiting, i found my reservation papper witch was clearly showing that i was allowed to check in 1 bag up to 20kg…man, i was so mad!!
I asked my assistent to go back to the guys and ask for a refund, but the guy wasnt helpfull at all…
So im waiting in this huge cue and its almost time for departure, i had to break in and run to the gate.
After all that mess, almost breathless at the gate for the sprint i was just on time….phewwww…
So, at the end i did travel and am now at Paradise, Madeira Island:)
Moral of the story? traveling on high season sucks big time!!!
Cant wait to start my training and diet for real, ill keep u guys posted.
