SO the big travel has stopped for now. The direct flight from Auckland to Dubai involved sitting on the tarmac in Kuala Lumpar for a hour while thwy chnged crew and fuel (I presume): Dubai appartently running at half capacity at the moment, not sure I want to witness 100%: Found my hotel in Barcelona (or paid a taxi driver €30 to find it). Had a shower and quick look at train station for the morning, might head out this evening a do the tourist thing
