Sep 27 - Amsterdam, Netherlands

Time to come home!   Last evening we got a message from Air Canada that our flight would be leaving 3 hours late!  And by the time we got up we had another message saying it would be delayed 4 hours!

It was too late to change our transfer time, apparently. This is the one complaint I have with Viking - they could have put us on a transfer to the airport at 11 AM instead of 7:30 AM and we could have waited more comfortably on the ship. But they would not do that!?!

So off we went to the airport for the long wait.  We did get a food voucher from Air Canada, and we sought out the Viking rep who helped us get the Special Assistance we had arranged.

By mid afternoon another hour delay had been announced!  And finally the last announcement of a further delay… and we were boarding at 6 PM!  Ten hours at an airport is not really fun! 

It was a very long day, but now we are home, still on Europe time, and laundry ready to go.

Thanks for coming along with us on our Grand European River Cruise!
