Asuncion - Madrid

I slept restless, it's still was the last night in Paraguay. I got up at 7:15 AM and slowly began to pack my bag and went to breakfast, also at ease. It was a good buffet. After some surfing not he internet and putting some of my pictures online, I checked out at 10 AM, because that's the official time to check out, the same as at many hotels.

However, I did not leave because there was no objection when I would sit in the garden and it is a very nice garden. I worked a little on my trip diary and especially the photos. Occasionally I played a game that I had downloaded for convenience. It was sunny weather, but it cooled down last night pretty well to 16 C, but slowly it became warmer.

So I sat there until 2:45 PM and then left really. It should be a 10 minute ride to the airport, but was much longer because the driveway to the highway was closed and the navigation system always sent me the wrong way, until I just rode my own route. Around 3:30 PM I was at the airport and delivered my car. I still had to pay 60,000 GS for cleaning, but that is € 10, I could live with. Then wait until opening of the check in, which lasted until 5.15 PM. I walked around occasionally, but with two bags is not convenient. The airport is also not so big. Checking in was fairly quick and customs gave no problem and so I was officially out of the country at 5.45 PM.

I had to wait some time before the gate actually opened. To my surprise I found some money in my purse, and spent it on buying some souvenirs, something I had not done. There were only a few shops. After having something to eat, the plane departed, this time on time at 8.20 PM. It was a long flight. After some food tI tried to get some sleep, which worked somewhat.
