live blogging lamest flight ever

This flight sucks.

Live from SAS Seattle --> Copenhagen. Internet connecton 30,000 feet above.

Copenhagen. A fine city where Kiyash and I had very awesome plans and reservations at a 5-star hotel.

Copenhagen. Which we circled for an hour while the pilot tried to figure out if we could land in the snowy conditions or not.

Now we are being diverted to Stockholm. :( To stay the night.

And miss the Royal Christening and La Glace and dinner with friends in Copenhagen.

This sucks sucks sucks.

Also, the kid in front of me threw up on my pants and shoes.

Sucks sucks sucks.

Yeah, we had a snowstorm (kind of) last night.

Hope you will arrive safely, but more snow are coming this night.. Hope the weather have cleared up by tomorrow. Else the train takes 6hours from Stockholm to Copenhagen, might be worth it ??
Bad luck about the Christening, though.
Guess I will be seated in front of the TV and guessing what other 4 names our new prince will get (Other then Christian!)

Enjoy you stay(if you ever get here !!),

Hello!

This is Leo of http://interactingarts.org. (sent you and email yesterday) Upon reading that your flight has been directed to Stockholm, I'd like to suggest dinner, or some other typ of meetup.

Call me at +46704820084 or drop an email at nordwall@interactingarts.org if you're up to it. We could also arrange for accomodation in a nice collective in central Stockholm if you'd like.

the wonders of live blogging, ey.. :)

Ew. Sympathy throwing up begins... NOW!

Arrive safely and still have fun :)

A quick update on the weather here in Denmark.
Don’t think it was the snow that closed the air port, but a good coating of freezing rain.
Found my car glazed like a piece of candy.. Did avoid the temptation to lick it..

So I think they will open the airport up tomorrow.

And just saw on the news, that La Glace made a Prince Cake for the Christening. So you better get in there and buy at least one. Just so you can annoy Kirsten(sorry, but La Glace is a fantastic place if you are into cakes and sweet stuff!!)..
I would gladly send them, just don't think anything from La Glace would survive the handling..

Wow, that really sucks. Here's hoping things get back in order right smart quick.

Ouch. Sounds harsh...and disgustingly grossly disgustering (no, that's not a misspelling). I suggest that you just look on the bright side of things! Check out Stockholm's poor weather....wait. Ok, i have sympathy. But hopefully some good will come of it. (Cookie rolling down an icy hill, mayhaps?).

I do find it interesting that.......the kid in FRONT of you threw up on you....so.... unless you somehow had your feet on his lap...yeah, i don't quite get it. Of course, i've never been on a plane, ever, so that might be why.

I do think it's very cool the amount of people you have on the Interweb (again, that's not a misspelling) who are ready to comment on your misfortunes, trials and tribulations. Oh, and to offer sympathy.

Well, hope things start looking up for you two. And everyone who got their planes diverted by the bad weather.
