Ahhh....what 17 hrs of sleep can do for the body!
We arrived on time (pretty much) at the airport in Frankfurt, set for the almost 4 hr drive to Antwerp. We grabbed at quick snack and headed to the Hertz counter where Brian's charm got us a BMW 318 Wagon WITH GPS in it!!!!
So, as you may imagine, the drive was much shorter than 4hr when one is in a BMW on the Autobahn!!
We checked in early to our hotel in the heart of Antwerp and crashed for a 1/2 hour or so. We decided to get some fresh air and see a bit of the town. At about 3pm, we decided we should eat and then head back for some more rest. We popped a movie into the lap top and rested. Heather fell asleep at about 6:30 and I shut out the lights around 8pm.
We just woke up!!!! Its 1pm!!!!!
So, off to build the bikes and get registered...check in is this afternoon, as tomorow's race starts at 11:AM!!!! We're still not sure whether or not there will be live-tracking. We'll put a note on here after we've checked in.
So with that we say "fraugehopha" (which is Dutch for "good afternoon"......just pullin yer leg)!!!!
Brian and Heather
Taking you on the road with us!!!!
We will be blogging while on the road.....check back on March 27th as we leave for California 70.3 Ironman.
