Bored in Zürich AirPort. WU went shopping. This can't be good.

We have a 6 hour layover in Munich. Anyone know if the airport is within sightseeing distance of the city?

Why not? [&:]

You might miss the next flight [;)]
You should be able to ride the airport express into the heart of the city. The S1 takes 42 to 46 minutes into the city.

Exactly!

You need 1 hour (roughly) to the city and one hour back - that's 2 hours. And you have to be at the airport at least 2 hours before flight. That's 4 hours. And you have just about 6 hours to spare... that's very close...

Santa Maria! An hour to get to the city? [X(]

[Historiker]

Yes. That is why Bavarian's former prime minister intended to get a maglev there...

[Onime No Kyo]

Your tax money well spent, I say. [:'(]

Germans did build Maglev for China for airport-city route (before Olympics 2008)...

Unfortunately that would not be possible... the Maglev is in Shanghai... [8D]


It was before Olympics 2008:

I think I should have spent more time in the country. [X(]

[Onime No Kyo]

So.....anyone know any comfortable seats at the Munich airport? I'll be here a while. [:(]

WU saw an add for a spa at the airport. I said if she gets that I get one of those Asian massages with a happy ending.

Btw Torsten, the WU has officially changed your nickname to Bavarian Horndog Monster.

Don't panic! UFO-shaped clouds sweep across sky in Chile

Stunning pictures capture rare saucer-shaped cloud formations that could be mistaken for an alien invasion

Clouds spotted above a mountain range in a national park in Chile

By DailyMail UK


At first glance these images could be mistaken for an imminent alien invasion, but the mysterious 'UFOs' seen floating over a mountain range are in fact clouds.

The rare formations - known as lenticular clouds - have been mistaken for UFOs thanks to their smooth, flying saucer-like shape and orange glow.

The clouds, which form in areas of high altitude, often baffle onlookers and have sparked fears of alien attacks.


Eerie: The rare cloud formations are often mistaken for UFOs because of their saucer-like shape and orange glow:




Despite their sinister appearance, the cloud formations are a natural weather phenomenon created when moist air flows over a mountain or mountain range.

If the temperature in the air drops, the moisture condenses forming a spiral-shaped lenticular cloud.

These stunning pictures were captured in Chile by Russian amateur photographer Dmitry Dubikovskiy while he was travelling with friends.

The 47-year-old was 'euphoric' when he spotted the rare cloud formations in the skies over Torres Del Paine National Park.
'It was a really stunning view,' he said.

'Lenticular clouds always look unusual and against teh light of a sunset they look even more magnificent.

'Whenever I go out for dinner with my friends, they all want to see the pictures and talk about how unique they are.

'I've only seen this sort of phenomenon a few times in my life but each time I see it I think it's amazing,' the photographer added.

'The feeling when I saw the clouds in Chile was similar to euphoria.

'Despite having to be out in the freezing and gusty wind conditions for a few hours to capture these pictures, it was completely worth it when I saw the finished work,' Mr Dubikovskiy said.
