Airport series: The Journey

Friday 28th, 11:00 in the morning: arrived at Buenos Aires Ezeiza airport, check-in was very easy..
..so there was plenty of time for a visit in the airport shops and a last Argentinian cortado.
Then waiting for the departure, which was on time, still early afternoon here.
Saturday 29th, 7:00am: in Madrid the sun rises. Couldn't sleep at all during the flight and feel somehow strange. Lost 4 hours during the flight. The worst thing is, that at about 3am this morning we had passed over the Canary Islands, my final destination :-(
After idling at Madrid airport, terminal 4. for almost 6 hours, we boarded for the flight back to the Canaries...
Teneriffe airport welcomed me at 3pm with a rain shower at about 19 degrees. It was a nice change from the 37 degrees in B.A., though.
Then, Saturday at 4pm, I was at the new home, finally. The view from the terrace made up for the long long way...
