@Absinthe @p @l0wk3y I started late (on AdventOfCode) and did only one and a half day :P

As long as I continue working on the I will not be posting a new

However, I encourage you all to give the a try. You don't have to do them all, though I would recommend doing them in order. You can even go back and do them from previous years.

Back from Tahiti!!! Finished Day10 part 1 in the airport, but not sure how to handle part two. Nor, how to handle being 10 days behind!
