It felt great walking into T5 and down to The First Wing (TFW). It feels like my second home. For Vick, it's likely a distant ninth!

Passport Control was pretty busy to be honest, but it didn't take very long to get through. Another successful use of the automated kiosks and I continue to be a happy bunny!

I jogged most of the way to Passport Control. A number of the Schengen gates along the way were very busy, but Passport Control was dead.

Malaga airport looked OK. Nothing special, but it had a Starbucks and a Giraffe restaurant, and that's just based on what I could see around Gate D42.
