Ice Ice Baby

I made it alive! Hazaah!

Left Winnipeg at one-ish, managed to compose myself before getting on the plane. People were starting to give me weird looks. What? Can't a grown woman sit and cry in an airport lounge?! Anyway, made it to toronto without and problems, then basically ran to my gate to get to Frankfurt. That flight was pretty uneventful all the way through (minus the two guys behind me getting completely HAMMERED on 6.00 tiny wine bottles) UNTIL we tried to land in Frankfurt. As we were descending, it looked really pretty in the clouds, it was snowing/raining so it looked like we were flying through glitter. Wee. But then, we got underneath the clouds and saw that the runway was just a sheet of black ice from the so called "pretty" glitter ice rain of death. The pilot came on the intercom and said "Ladies and gents, you may want to prepare for a difficult landing." Ugh. So we touched down and proceeded to slide down the entire runway, it felt like we were fishtailing...but in a massive PLANE. We finally came to a full stop, and then the pilot started to drive the plane into the correct gate from there.

Then flying from Frankfurt to Ljub, the storm had gotten so bad that they had to de-ice the plane twice, and delayed the flight about half an hour. But, do you think a snow/ice/rain storm will stop Adria Airways from boarding out on the tarmac? No sir...we had to walk out there in all that precipitation to get on a tiny plane that I was fairly certain would be the death of me.

When I got to Brnik airport, Primoz was supposed to pick me up. He wasn't there. So i waited and waited and waited for about 40 minutes, and then remembered I had his number. So I got some random tourist info man to lend me his cell phone and I called Primoz. He got the times mixed up...he thought i was coming in 11:45 pm. So he called Matic and Joe to come and get me. 2 hours later, I was finally in a house.

Kinda feel sick from not eating enough and not sleeping enough, but I'm going to go to sleep now and hopefully will feel better in the morning.
