Sometimes things turn out different than you thought:
Nighttrain to Amsterdam, one day in Amsterdam:
In the evening flight to London, one night at the airport and in the morning heading off to Costa Rica. After more than half-way the vulcano next to the airport in San José decides to spit some ashes into the air. Therefore the pilot turns around and flys back to London (excellent!)
Luckily BA pays for accomodation, food and provides a new flight. This one goes after one night in Hilton to Houston. Therefore I had a 10 hour sunset and the honour to fly over greenland and got to see all the glaciers
One night in Houston in Mariott and off I go to Costa Rica. Total travelling time: 95h
