OK.

NEXT time i go on an internatioal journey and have the opportunity to to have an overnight stay on a connecting flight i'm bloody well going to take it. A 12 hour evening flight from singapore to Vienna, then 4 hours in the airport followed by a 2 hour flight to Vilnius, a 1 hour drive to Kuanas with a 1 hour stop of at a hidden country style restaurant for dinner... i was pretty darn tired. Sleeping on the 12 hour flight is all well and good if a) you get a window seat, or b) you are next to a friend whose shoulder you can sleep on, of which I had neither. The best sleep was on the chairs at Vienna airport where I could actuall stretch out using my shoulder bag as a pillow. Got a good 1.5 hours in. So all up I was awake for about 36 hours.

Once I get more settled i'll start posting pictures and less words, cos I'm sure a picture of me with baggy eyes sleeping on the seats in the airport would have saved you reading the above rant! Off to the tourism place now to book some plans for the next 3 weeks. More later :)

edit:

OH, here's a lovely map of where I am. Landed in Vilnius, then drove to Kuanas where my family live
