When All Else Fails, Go Back To Basics.

A day trip to the airport.

The only time we frequent an airport is when we see off family or pick them up. Airports are a big adventure and I for one am very happy to meander around the portal to other places secure in the knowledge that I am going home to my own bed that night. Just being around the travelling vibe is a reminder that there is a big world out there ready to be explored or not.

We have to be at the airport at half five and that got me to thinking that Bob and I could have a bite to eat while waiting as he still has to drive home and only eating at eight is too late. Early this morning we got the better of a reluctant internet and started an online search for a vegan restaurant / snack-bar at Vienna International. Not much to be had. Sadly, or at least the internet is still a bit coy about announcing vegan options.

Even the golden arches seem to have stopped progress at the veggie burger. Rather silly not to have a vegan burger which anyone can eat as opposed to a veggie one that is garnished with cheese ( ? ) and mayonnaise. Please, get with it.

After some time the penny dropped. Why not make some sandwiches and eat them in the car park as we get there and why did it take me so long to figure that one out? Sandwiches that we like, that will give us nourishment and that don't cost the world. As we speak I have prepared a batch of sandwiches and am rather looking forward to our picnic at the Vienna airport...and yes, even I can tell that we have passed the first blush of youth!
