Delayed flights. Missed connections. What's new?

I’m becoming convinced that it is not possible for me to travel to Europe without facing any of the aforementioned problems. On this particular trip, the issues started before we even left Vermont. A delay leaving Vermont left us stranded in Philadelphia, searching for another flight to Europe. In the end grabbed seats on a flight leaving a bit later headed to Munich.

Now looking on the bright side, the plane flying to Munich was huge and mostly empty. I had 4 seats all to myself, and I was able to sprawl right across them for some sleep. This almost makes up for sprinting across the Philadelphia airport with a huge backpack, only to miss the flight anyways.

I am now chilling in the Munich airport, which I have to say, is among the less exciting airports I have flown through. However, since it is currently 10:15am here (4:15 am in VT) and I have had 1.5 hours of sleep, I am really appreciating the free coffee. I’ve already had 2 cups so jet lag can kiss my ass.
