Cruisin'-part 1

So we are out o Moscow, Russia and on with our lives.....After a LONG travel day on Saturday, beginning in Moscow with a delayed flight (because there is only one runway most flights are delayed)...we flew to Rome, arrived at 8:45pm (15 minutes before our connection to Amsterdam)...we had passport control and customs to get through, which put as at our connecting gate at 9:15pm. This means our flight should have taken off....but again, DELAY til 10:30pm. The good news, free meal! We boarded, flew (slept the whole way), and landed in Amsterdam at 1:30am....poor Marleen picked us up bc our rental car co was closed. We woke the next morning 9:30am (wanted to be on the road at 8am) and drove back to the airport for our rental. We got a SMART car cabrio, woohooo!!!!!! What a fun piece of machinery, this made up for the lack of sleep the day before.
