The Next Adventure…
Well, after too long working my arse off, it’s time for another adventure. This trip had been on the cards for a while, and now it has started…JAPAN!!!
No point talking about the boring start to the day in Geelong (like packing), but it was off to Brett’s after lunch, and then to the airport. We met up with Jack, and after paying about $200 in excess baggage costs (I had 4 Datascore units packed, and Brett had tools and brackets because we didn’t know what we could get over there), we went through and had our first drink. A domestic flight got us to Sydney where we thought we’d have a nice meal during our 2 hour stop over. However at 9.15pm, the only store open in the entire international lounge was McDonalds!!?!?!??!? So that upset that plan 🙁
The plane from Sydney was about 3/4 full. We managed to get front row seats in a section, but they were in the middle. So we did have extra leg room, but still had the wall in front. Still, it was better than the standard seat. I watched “Red Dog” and we had a few drinks together, and then it was time to try to get some sleep. I think I managed about 3 hours (interrupted) sleep, so that was good.
