Oh how I've missed the sea
... Go through security again, before the check-in counter. Have a Fanta on the other side and then my flight is called an hour early. Turns out the security line is ridiculous, again.

The creative side in me decided to create a banner with Mikayla's help by using a bed sheet, and foil paper - one would never know! Looks pretty good doesn't it!
