Airports

When I arrived to helsinki-vantaa airport I noticed that the baggage drop was closed. So this meant that I would need to try to sleep somewhere there. First I picked up some food from Alepa. Then I bought a tea and croissant from cafe Spoon. Then after eating the snack I tried to sleep in the soft bench that are owned by the cafe. I was not the first one to do this, so I dared to stay. Also it was not  a busy time of the day.

About 4:30 the drop desk opened and I dropped my bag. This meant that I would be able to catch some more zzzz in a quieter place. Luckily the gate was easy to find and empty, so I sneaked into a corner place and slept some more. I also tweeted about flying with KLM and they tweeted me back! Lovely customer relations. The flight was only 2 h 5 mins but due to the plane staying over night there was some frost that needed to be removed. So we left about 20 mins late. I slept almost the whole flight. I woke up to eat and for landing. More about Schiphol airport later. My free wifi time is up.
