Flight

I left for Sweden on July 30th, thursday, from Lansing Airport. I drove myself there along with my dad and dog, who threw up on the way as her way of thanking us for including her. My sister and mother couldn't make it because they had left the day previously for England to attend my cousins wedding.

We then landed in Detroit, from where I left for Amsterdam along with another Sweden-bound exchange student. I spent the long journey watching I Love You, Man, Yes Man, and Watchmen.

I then promptly got lost in Amsterdam airport looking for something I didn't need, something I realized after I finally found the Information Desk. Then I annoyed a Dutch stewardess because I didn't have a boarding pass. I slept the hour flight and half hour wait to Copenhagen, was confused by Danish advertising and waited for approximately a very long, long time at baggage claim for my aforementioned über-duffel.

After I recovered that, I pushed my baggage trolley through the hallway marked "Ankomst". Amongt the crowd there was a large sign that said "Welcome Phil".
