FRANKFURT:
Robert slept about an hour on a few seats in Frankfurt Airport waiting for the delayed flight to Zagreb, Croatia. We will still have to make it to Split, Croatia to pickup our catamaran "Danina" on Saturday.
Well, the flight to Zagreb was delayed do to weather in Zagreb. Somehow I think weather is going to be the operative word on this trip.
Frankfurt, Germany to Zagreb, Croatia:
Short and sweet trip with just more of the impeccable European service. Flight over the Alps was breathtaking.
WE MADE IT. ALL INTACT except for Robert's suitcase alittle smashed.
