Europe Tour Day 1 – A 30 Hour Journey
February 6, 2008 by Jan Welch

All carry-on bags ready for Europe at the San Diego Airport

Takeoff was delayed two-hours by bad weather in SF, bummer.

Here’s Jon with his Japanese friend at SFO, after missing our connecting flight to Frankfurt. We now have to wait six-hours for a connecting flight to London Heathrow instead.

Shima and Cory on the Flight to London not looking forward to the five-hour layover we have there. As you can see Brian is prepared with seasoned travel neck pillow in tow, Cory on the other hand is wearing a baseball hat indoors?

It’s been almost twenty hours since we left San Diego, with an extra delay for bad weather and beard maintenance in Frankfurt. Jan is not looking forward to the six hour drive to Bad Reichenhall, Germany.

We get to Germany and here Jon is hooking up the rental car for our trip, A Skoda Roomster.

Shima filming at the Frankfurt airport before heading into a blizzard and speeds up to 175 kph on the Autobahn at 4 am. It was a long wait but we finally made it.
