We headed to Los Angeles on the 11th so that we could visit with Josh and Vanessa and our new little grandson before heading out to Europe. We had a wonderful visit. Our hotel was the airport Hilton. And we had great views of the runway. We could watch the planes take off and land. Of course, we could also hear them take off and land but they didn’t disturb us too much at night.
We had a late checkout on Saturday as our flight doesn’t leave until late afternoon. We are flying to Munich on Lufthansa. Unfortunately, our flight was delayed by about 45 minutes and we are most concerned about catching our connection to Split.
The other
concern…the business class seat on Lufthansa turned out to be some of the most
uncomfortable business class seats we have ever flown in. Paul slept not at all and Mary maybe slept a
small amount. But it was still better
than economy where we wouldn’t have been able to recline at all.
We arrived late
in Munich and arrived at the gate for our flight to Spit with only about 5
minutes to spare. At least we caught our
flight.
We arrived at the Split airport in the afternoon. Unfortunately, our luggage didn’t make the
tight connection. Lufthansa sent us text
message letting us know. They also had a
form to fill out to help them locate the luggage. As we will be on the move a bit we are very
concerned as to whether or not the luggage will ever catch up to us.
Jim and Phyllis Bratt, our travel buddies, got to Split not
long after we arrived. Our hotel is just
inside one of the city gates to the old town and has a lovely terrace. We sat out there for quite a while and ended
up having dinner there as well. The
weather is lovely. We all went to bed
pretty early as we all have jetlag.
