Greetings from rainy, hot and muggy Zagreb

Palace Hotel, Zagreb, Croatia

Well, we're here, but it sure took long enough.

First we spent two hours in the plane on the runway at SeaTac while they repaired a hole on our runway. That made what was a nearly three hour layover in Frankfurt a run for the gate situation, but somehow all of us made it. After a quick hour and ten minute flight we landed as a bunch of zombies in Zagreb a little after 2pm local time. Pretty much no one had slept more than a couple of hours, and after all the running and then landing in the hot and humid Zagreb airport everyone was ready to finally be here.

After checking in most of us took a power nap and met for dinner at 7pm followed by a short walk around the main town square until 10pm local time, at which point everyone was beat and ready for bed. I went out real quick before dinner and took some pictures of the main square, which is only about two blocks from our hotel. They're not the greatest, but I didn't have much time and it was raining. Sounds like most of the area has been affected by thunderstorms, which should last until the weekend or so. We'll be here until Friday, so hopefully the weather will break long enough to get some decent shots.

I just threw these up there without and real explanation because I need to go to bed. Suffice to say, this is the main square in Zagreb.
