Volcano woes

We should be at Brisbane airport now, waiting in line, but sadly a mountain in Iceland named Eyjafjallajokul messed up out travel plans. A cloud of volcanic ash covers most of Northern Europe.

Our destination, Amsterdam is smack bang in the middle of the cloud. The airlines keep trying to spread an optimistic message, but when I look at the map, prospects look grim until the volcano stops spewing out ash. It could be worse. We could be stuck in the airport terminal in Singapore, along with hundreds of others.
