I'm en route to Uganda and have already had a number of experiences worthy of blogging about. The first experience was that I had an economy plus seat on the United flight from DC to Brussels. This means that I should have had about 5 extra inches of leg room. However, the seat I had was behind the crew rest seats so I actually had about a foot of extra room. I could stretch out my legs and my seatmate could still walk around me. I felt like I was in business class! Also, since I've stopped eating meat I requested a vegetarian meal for the flight. I had couscous with mixed vegetables that was so good I couldn't believe it was airplane food. Yum.
I arrived in Brussels and was told that my flight to Kampala was delayed 24 hrs so I stayed overnight in Brussels. I planned on going into the city but by the time I got to my hotel and took a short nap the weather was rainy and cold and I wasn't prepared to head out into the wet weather. So, I ate lunch, took another nap, ate dinner and watched some movies before going to bed. This is the view from my hotel room:
I'll be heading to the airport in a few minutes for my 10 1/2 hour flight to Kampala .. stay tuned for more updates!Love,
Alisia
