Land ho! | 23/366 003x

            40000' under us is L'Anse Aux Meadows, Newfoundland  - widely considered to be the location of the first European settlement in North America. Something about Vikings, 1000 years ago. Looking for Valhalla. Found snow instead.

Anyhow, today was a very long travel day - up at 0600 in Barcelona, off to Zurich to make our connecting flight back to Montréal, and then a 2-hour drive from Mtl home to Ottawa. We made it home by 1800 Ottawa time (midnight Barcelona time) so you'll have to excuse the lack of creative diversity today.

Had I had a window seat on the Barcelona-Zurich leg, I could have taken a shot of Air Force One as it was taxiing towards a runway at the Zürich Flughafen. (All the Davos riffraff were on their way home.) The somewhat grumpy-looking Swiss guy in the window seat next to me wouldn't have appreciated the reach...
