1 day and 2 hours too late

I'm back from France.
It was great and I've taken many pictures (coming soon!)
But the most exciting thing was the flight back to Austria. The flight from Austria to France was okay (even the plane was really old), but here is the story of the last day(s):
Monday:
14 h: we went from Cannes to the airport in Nice. Our plane should've taken of at 16:40. We were all sure, that it will not take off at this time, because in the last days the planes of SkyEurope were delayed. Always something about 5 hours!
Well, after the check-in there were some good news. Only 1,5 hours to wait, not 5 hours. We were glad. We got into the plane and we were waiting for the start.
The plane rolled back something about 5 meters and stopped!
Waiting...
Then, the bad news: The "push-back-vehicle" broke something off the plane and they have to repair the plane now.
Waiting again...
The next bad news: We cannot stay at the plane and it will not take off this evening.
So we went back to the waiting room, sitting around and waiting for news.
The flight was cancelled and there was no chance to get a flight on monday.
After getting back our luggages we went to a hotel nearby the hotel to spend the night there not knowing what will happen the following day.
It's terrible to spend 7 hours at the airport for nothing.

Tuesday:
Waiting for information.
What will happen? There were three possibilities:
1. We'll take the next plane
2. We'll take the bus (more than 12 hours from Nice to Vienna by bus)
3. We'll take the train (more than 20 hours from Nice to Vienna by train)
Finally we tried again to take the plane.
It was again delayed! But only 2 hours.
Yes, and now I'm home again.
After 1 day and 2 hours waiting.

More about France coming soon....

Je fais mes bagages...et à bientôt!

Tomorrow, I'm going on holiday for 9 days. I'm going to France with school to improve my languages skills and see France and the culture of the country.
I'm really excited about it and I'm a bit afraid of the languages, because the French speak very fast!

Have a nice week and I'll be back here with many photos of France! ;)

Au revoir!
