still do not know if we returned from the Antipodes or the confines of the Milky Way. The journey Hobart (capital of Tasmania) - Sevilla took us 96 hours and I swear we did not walk. After crossing the Bass Strait (see Google Maps) and reconstruct the Melbourne airport travel to Hong Kong where we barely had time to sip some coffee - almost dawn - one of the ubiquitous Starbucks (and have colonized Asia, I suspect). From there we jump to a cosmic journey in which we cross the Himalayas, the Gobi desert, the steppes of Siberia, the Urals and the Baltic, to land in the middle of a beautiful snow storm at London airport Heathrow.
And there, in the sweet Europe (so we thought we), was the worst. Our flight was canceled and with hundreds of passengers we were caught in a whirlwind of snow, lack, hunger, fatigue and despair. Soon, very soon, failed to spend Christmas Eve in British lands, expeditioners dressed with a glossy layer of dirt travel. Blessed and holy
mobile friends (Manuel, you're great, I owe you one anemones in the south).
Thanks to our guardian angels in Seville, which had in the air in the middle of their Christmas shopping.
Thanks to the people of Iberia who brought us, as he could, the mess.
Thanks to the captain of the flight from Madrid to Seville, which made us laugh when we no longer had the strength not to laugh.

Thanks to those who were generous in the midst of confusion. When a group works in solidarity problems are small, very small ... and the smile does not disappear.
Now we just need ... luggage to appear ...
keep you informed ...
January 7 Annotation: the bags were arriving little by little, and the routine (holy routine) as well. Now only (merely?) Tell this story in pictures ...
