The flights were all uneventful and early. Belgium was quite foggy when we arrived which made for a slower drive from Brussels to Gent. I’m back at the airport waiting for a collegue from Manila to arrive. Her flight from Manila to Amsterdam was early, but her flight from Amsterdam to Brussels, at best a 20 minute flight, is now 1 1\/2 hours late. I’m sure she’s right ready for this day to come to an end.<\/p>\n
We’re staying at a new (for us) hotel in Gent. It’s somewhat quaint but serviceable. It does have wifi in the room, which is very nice.<\/p>\n
I’m glad I brought my iPod with me to the airport. The flight continues to be delayed.<\/p>\n
I got to the hotel and into bed about 11 am this morning. I got up about 4 this afternoon, showered, and met some other collegues for dinner. We ate at a small restaurant run by an Iranian fellow. Good food!<\/p>\n
The weather here is normal winter weather. The high today was about 40 degrees Farenheit, sunny this afternoon (after a foggy start), with a slight breeze. That’s good enough. Now the airplane needs to arrive!
