Lounging Around in Brussels

Super early start today - wake up call for 3.50am. Checked out by 4.15am and on the bus at 4.35am (had 15min waiting in cold as there are both shuttles and buses going to the airport, and we had the ticket for the slightly later bus).

Hotel gave us a packed breakfast, which was... edible. Understandably, no lounge open at Venice airport as it was too early. Got on our plane for a 2 hour flight to Brussels, with 4-5 hours to kill before connection to Barcelona.

Got to Brussels airport and hurrah for a good lounge with no time limit. Spent almost four hours here, just relaxing and eating and using wifi. Nice bread, nice beer and really nice snacks.

Seriously loving having our Diners Club cards - would highly recommend for anyone going to more than 2 international airports in 6 months.

Then a quick flight to Barcelona (see next post).Read more
