It was really nice to have a blue sky and some white clouds. We still have fires burning, but with the change in weather, the smoke is risking and allowing the sky to show. That does help to lift my spirits.
I just checked in my luggage for Frankfurt and had to stuff my tripod into my suitcase. Seems London is really strict on the one bag rule. And I checked the camera bag as well, which makes me really nervous. It was that or my computer bag and I have trouble keeping the computer bag closed. And for work, I am afraid that the computer rules. So I will be very relieved when we complete the luggage check in London and I can retrieve my camera gear in Frankfurt. My one other issue is that my prime suitcase for this three week jaunt is heavy (53 lbs)and will probably be a bother when I catch the train in Frankfurt for Marburg, my final destination on this leg.
Oh well, we depart in an hour, so press on!
Best regards, Doug
