Kotiin

written after homecoming, on february.
-----------
Our flightplan was Sapporo-Tokio-Heathrow-Helsinki... So, we wokeup on 4.45, some of us didnt sleep.. headed to bus station on 5.25, smoked 1 cigarette/ person and jumped to bus. On 6.00 (i think) we arrived to airport... On International terminals... By our mistake we were on wrong term. so while janne was like "im going to smoke with team germany now"(Gyus have being on airport some days, cause of cancelled flights during storms or something) others of us started to run towards Domestic terminal, shouting Janne comeoonn perkele. Arto & Janne had toolbags: 24+29kg on other hand, so running was.... not too fast.

we got to check-in line maby on 6.20 and flight should leave at 7.00. By 6.50 we were still dropping too many tools on the desk to lower our weight, and then customs grabbed arto,rasha&matti(with jannes passport and ticket on hand)rushed us through securitycheck-in with really confusing technique.... All of us was 100% sure that janne is going to stay in Japan. In the end we got on plane, and Janne was sitting on plane like a rockstar... "heeey i got in plane whitout passport or a ticket.. hahahaha.

So we fly to Tokio, and we had 2h wait there so we had cigarettes on there(aaah, the Nicotine) and then started 14h flight to Heathrow....Shiiiit! So when the plane touched ground on Queen´s Landings, oll of us was bit tired... On Ap we saw signs,"against the law to smoke in or outside of this building".... On that point, the plan was: everyone smokes as much as need, in time it takes till customs will take us. But bravely we tried to find Smoking area.

Rasha had to take a nap on main area on Terminal3, so Team Smoking walked back to where we came, to hear we had to leave Ap to Britts and we had to take a second security check to get back to Ap... Pfffft*'¨^!#! From the poin we arrived, it took like 2.50h to get outside, smoke 8 cigareetes in a row, get security checked 2 times and back to main hall of T3. Rasha woked up,saw us by glimpse, went to drink water on Ap toilet cause she didnt feel well. (on a smokerun arto had changed his white hat to pink bunnyrabbit hat, got from sapporo) Rest of us was sitting on mainhall checking emails etc. 45mins before flight will start, security comes to team"excusemuaa were you traveling whith a woman? Shes not feeling well." Arto went to her and it appered she had passed out after toilet and was babbling like bugabigablaääaa right 5 minutes ago... She has had dificulties to explain to security: find 3 guys looking all somehow the same, exept one guy has pink bunny on top of his head....

Soooo, meanwhile arto was giving er to rasha to get her sugars up, Janne&Matti had to start boarding. Everyone was tired and wanted to get home so splitting was possibility(in the end it wasnt), cause some fat lady on on borading wasn going to let Rasha fly cause of her state, she was bit pale but asured she can fly, Fat lady kept her mind, Matti&Janne went to plane and Rasha&Arto waited... Gladly The nicest flycrew on whole trip, decided behalf of Fat Lady and took Rasha onboard....

Last part of the flight has started.. Rest 3h we all got some sleep on our own 3seats, got extra food cause flight wasnt full and all went well.... Phew perkele!!!

This was the last official written memory of our trip. Please understand, that the situation was ecceptional, and our strenght has long gone on the competitions. -A good trip thou..
