What you see hanging around airports

A380 at YYZ

A380 at YYZ

Just waiting around at Pearson Airport.  Check in and security when extremely well so I’ve got plenty of time to kill before my flight.

Wandering around and ran into this big boy at one of the gates.  The Emirates A380 with about 100 people swarming around her.  Probably only about 20 were actually assigned but he draws a crowd.

That’s a big engine!

Big ol jet liner

Steve Miller Band song stuck in my brain today.  Getting ready to board my old friend Air Canada flight 878 to Zurich.  The travel freeze has thawed so it’s off to Switzerland for another week of meetings.

Unfortunately the days of business travel are long gone so I’ll squeeze into seat 21A and *try* to catch a few hours sleep on the way over.  Landing around 8 in the morning Swiss time which gives me 1/2 day before I can even check in at the hotel in Einsidelen, about an hour by train away.

Got the new Dan Brown book to waste some time if sleep won’t come.
