Translation of formalism in Spanish

We drove to the airport to do early check-in but it went so quickly that we had four hours left before our flight departed. We therefore took a cab back into town and visited the local market.
how are you? Where do you live in Austria? I hope your Spanish is good enough that you understand my sentences! If you can't understand it i will write this in English. I live in Munich, btw.
As my wife is a travel agent, and knows that in certain cases people do not show up, we decided to take a taxi to the airport nonetheless. It was actually not far from the border, about 5 kilometers away.
