'Leaving on a jet plane'

So my flight was from London Hethrow to Singapore, Singapore to Melbourne, Melbourne to Auckland.

The whole flying thing is a bit of a blur now, but all in all a succesfull flight. The first leg of the journey we met alot of turbulance and I was penned in with a grumpy old man to my left and a couple that did not stop sleeping! Just stuck my iPod in and tried to get as much sleep as possible!

The rest of the journeys were not bad at all, the last leg was a bit rubbish, but mainly because 22 hours of flying and lack of sleep were taking there toll.

Arrived in Auckland around 11am Thursday 1st July. Carol and Mitchel met me in the airport on a very sunny "winter's" day. I remembered feeling like it was only a few weeks since I saw them last but in reality a few years.

So great to sleep in a real bed and have a shower after all that time on a plane.
