Let us try again tonight...

New day, new possibilities to make it to Almaty. After a day full of drama yesterday, the conclusion is now that we lost one travel companion and we are one day delayed. The party of 4 eventually made it to Istanbul from Oslo last night (as one of the very few flights out of Gardermoen in the total airtraffic chaos, as Istanbul is one of the few airports not covered by the ash-cloud), and are flying into the glorious country of Kazakhstan tonight. Kristin is sacrificed to the big evil project monster (as her b2b did not arrive due to the ash and the closed airports), so we have to accept we will not have her great company during this trip. I will make my way to Almaty on my own tonight, meeting up with the others at the airport. I land at 01:40 and they land at 01:35. Then let us hope the BIG TRIP begins!!
