Super Secure
After 95 days I finally joined the Hilarity gang, ready to enjoy the remaining 5% of the fun. Myself and Loren (sorry, Loren and I) flew out from London to some obscure place "in" Barcelona - of course in mainland Europe "in" is roughly translated as "waaaaay out." The security at the airport was somewhat intense, including pat-downs and shoe x-rays. By the time we actually got on the air vehicle I was feeling very safe until I heard a strange sound and an odd smell. Looking to my right I noticed the girl across the aisle playing with her lighter - flame goes on, flame goes out. When she noticed that several people were staring at her, she put it away - realising the flight-cancelling possibility of having a lighter on board.
After arriving in Spain and waiting a few hours for Matt and Si to pick us up we made for the border. After a brief pause in France we are now hanging out in Switzerland, land of the unsecured wireless internet points.
