19 December — Monday

Bal, our 8 months old dog, came with me to Portugal to spend Christmas with Gabriela and her family.

My idea was to tire Bal out as much as possible before the flight for him to sleep during the trip.
So I made this schedule, read it over 20 times the night before, hoping for everything to go smooth.

08.00 - 08.30 — Wake up + shower
08.30 - 09.30 — Bal in the park
09.30 - 10.00 — Pick up Gabriela’s gift
10.00 - 12.00 — Finalize suitcase
12.00 - 13.00 — Play w Bal
13.00 - 15.00 — Walk from home to Paddington
15:10 — Catch Heathrow Express

It didn’t go smooth at all.
