photos from my Toulouse trip are over on facebook

[livejournal.com profile] madryn_1960 asked me for photos of my trip to Toulouse, so I've posted a bunch over on Facebook. Sorry I'm too tired to put them here, too...

Why am I posting photos instead of enjoying the SCA event? Because all flights to Frankfurt were canceled due to volcanic ash. Sure, we *could* have taken the train instead. But the reason we had booked flights in the first place is that they are ever so much more affordable than the train. Not being willing to pay that much for a weekend, I'm staying home, where, with luck, I will accomplish much. The airlines says that they will refund the ticket price, less a 20 Euro service charge, within the month. Here is hoping the air is clear for my flight to Vienna in a couple of weeks...

Wow! Please lead me to the places where it's cheaper to fly than take the train!

I'm sorry your trip got cancelled. The ash cloud is something else - so much of Europe is under it at this point, it's a miracle that anyone is making it anywhere!
