Arriving in Copenhagen - 1 year, 1 month and 1 day on the road (HAN-BKK-DOH-CPH)

Needless to say - a six hour stopover in Doha is not something to look forward to. We had an excellent flight from Bangkok to Doha, but the airport in Doha might be big and impressive and new and expensive but is has got about as much soul and charm as a cold piece of rock and we spent six hours there. There are only limited resting facilities but Malene managed to get a chair and lie down for some hours of sleep.

Our flight for Copenhagen left on time, we had a smooth ride and arrived in Copenhagen a few minutes before schedule to a cold and wet Denmark, the sun making it through the clouds, some really impressive rain showers around Copenhagen and the green colour of the trees looking like spring is just about to happen. Just like we remembered it.

When we left the aircraft Malene got a text from Mathilde that she was also in the airport but due to the new layout of the departure and arrival areas we only managed to do a "touch the window"-hug before we left for our luggage.

Our family and friends were at the airport to greet us. It was so nice to see them again, finally being home and us forgetting everything about jet-lag, having been on a 24 hour flight, or having been away from Denmark at all. It just felt so nice to see them and being able to give them a hug.

We left the airport after a short while and headed home for our apartment being a little excited to see how it was looking having had a number of different people living there while we were gone. It all turned out to be just as when we left it. Feeling at home is the best feeling on a day like this.

Once we managed to find the different things in the boxes we had lunch with our family and friends and when they left in the afternoon Mikkel collapsed on the sofa and Malene started to unpack her stuff. Nice with to sleep in our own bed tonight. It's impossible to understand that we've managed to pull off this trip in the way we did. 22.000 pictures and an endless list of memories to go through. And some dirty laundry.
