Off to Malta, February 2010

Taking advantage of two holidays for a six day weekend in Malta - Left for the airport at 5:30PM. Had five people in the van. When we arrived, there was a group that had left the office at 4PM for an 8PM flight. The check in gate had not opened yet. Around 6:15 the check in gate opened, I was one of the few who bought business class so I was the first one to get checked in, ha ha. Went straight to the business lounge. Though only a few had business class seats almost everyone paid the 20LYD to get into the business lounge. We had over 20 AECOM folk in the business lounge. We were delayed 30 minutes for a group of Russians that ran late for some reason. Flight was good and had a small snack and champagne. I was sitting next to Andrew and we had a good conversation. In Malta, my driver was waiting for me at the meet and greet. Got to the hotel and was escorted to the 15th floor executive check in level. Its nice to have a glass of wine whilst one checks in. Unpacked and went to the 7th floor to one of the restaurant/bars and had Brochette and Tortellini with a few Rum and cokes. Had a glass of wine and wrote my journal before calling it a day.
