Thusrsday , a long day again at the customer office , ending up with a late nigh dinner with the collegeaus , a Greek restaurant this time
afterwards I made another city walk , this time with the carry-on tripod :-)
Friday, last day at Sweden, finishing items with the customer and heading back home, ideally we wanted to leave around 2PM , leaving me some time for a short city trip by daylight , euh... 3PM and al pitch black outside..
I was earlier amazed about the less traffic within stockholm , it appeared due to a toll you have to pay .
Another new thing I encounterd was that the two taxis we took where both Prius (Hybrid) , (still the go upto 4.5L nominal during city drives)
Afterwards a short taxi ride we decided to take a cup of coffee at the airport , awaiting the gate to open so we could board and take a nap :-)
on arrival in Brussels airport , the classic stuff, baggage delayed... took them +/- 45 minutes to solve this (grrrr...)
Heading for the carpark I realized that I lost my parking ticket ..I went
to the small booth and informed the guy on the other side of the glass about the situation ...
Him : that will cost you 500€ sir
Me :euh ... Sorry?
Him : Just kidding sir , but I do need you boarding pass from leaving, your Id and... your car ID's..
Me : car ID ? , so I need to go to my car first?
Him : yes please ..
Me: went to the car , dropped my luggage in the trunk , took the Car-Id's and went back , at the end it was 'only' 69€...
anyway after this other small delay I pointed my car direction 'Leuven City Centre' to join the company Christmas Dinner .
