St. Colmcille brought me from Boston to Dublin.
Dublin’s terminal A isn’t great. In fact, I only found one functional power outlet, and it conveniently spanned the entrance of the ladies’ room. I arrived at 5 AM and fought to stay awake as to not miss my flight!
St. Ibar took me from Dublin to Berlin:
Over 24 hours awake now. A comfortable 1 hour train ride to the hotel.
By some very very good luck and happy chance, I ran into the FUDcon dinner train. They very kindly and patiently waited for me to drop my things off and we headed out for yummy (and veggie-friendly thankfully) food!
I think I’ve been awake for something like 34 hours now. Time to sleep!
The plane food meal looks like veggies, a big stick of butter, and rice. I am guessing that its something else. It cools when airlines put the names on their planes. What airline was that?

Stick of Butter = Tofu

Please check your title
Posted by tazz | June 24, 2009, 3:36 amMy title is correct. ‘Day 0′ indicates a day of travel. I spent some time in Dublin on the layover to Berlin.
Posted by mairin | June 24, 2009, 4:03 amEnjoy your time here! Is this for holidays?
Posted by Christoph | June 24, 2009, 6:29 amNope I’m here for LinuxTag and FUDCon Berlin!
Posted by mairin | June 24, 2009, 5:20 pmGuessing you’re here for LinuxTag too huh? I had a wander today just to get my bearings, but I think it’s going to be a lot of fun. Think Dan and Fab from Linux Outlaws are there tomorrow too…

Posted by mairin | June 24, 2009, 5:22 pmI like the desktop background on your laptop on the fifth photo. It’s an amazing background! It reminds me of a leaf I saw in the Singapore Botanical Gardens. The guy who shot that leaf picture must be a really gifted
