I made it to Germany!
But apparently that TSA agent in Austin
did't take all of my bad ju ju for the trip.
- A plane lost power just before take off (which led to a moment of silence from all the passengers, but quickly followed by a “Well, that didn't sound good” by a worker on the ground)
- My leg died while walking the most I've ever walked through an airport in London
- My ticket from London to Dusseldorf was apparently canceled at some point and they refused to let me on the plane for a while
- And the airport apparently misplaced my luggage somewhere between Chicago and Germany (of course)
Yet somehow my paddle made it, so I
guess the Kayak Gods were somewhat looking out for me there. I
brought most of my other boat parts in my carry on, so all I am
really missing is clothes and toiletries, but eh, minor details.
Gerald (team manager) provided us with
more Team USA gear, which luckily for Kelly, means I get to have a
clean shirt for the night. See, there's those Kayak Gods taking care
of me again..
