Onto Australia

After a couple hours wait, they begin boarding the airplane to Australia. I had powered up my laptop at an outlet and I was ready. I had a little sleeping pill and was prepared to move my seat if I had to. Well, I did move my seat. The plane had a lot of extra space so, I moved from my two seater window seat to an aisle seat with 4 seats. Another guy came and sat on the aisle. He and I chatted for a while, from Brisbane (sp?) and over here for "Holiday", going rafting down the Grand Canyon with his dad! How cool - that is on my to-do list before I turn 40. He was a real nice guy and once he saw me curled on my two seats, he offered to let me use the third as he was not able to curl as well as me! I told him I would only slip my toes over the line!


So, I snuggled in and thought I would snooze before dinner was served. I slpet through dinner and woke up about 2 hours later. That would be 5:00 AM east coast time. I took my sleeping pill to ensure that I would sleep and I did for about 8 hours!! Imagine 8 hours curled up on two seats (with my toes hanging over to the third). It worked out just great.


The rest of the flight, I watched a movie called Southern Belles by Bansi's son. It has the potential to be a 16 Candles type of classic movie, worth the watch if you grew up in the 80's and liked Napolean Dynamite. Worked and planned my classes for tomorrow, had breakfast and prepared to land. Here are pictures on the plane.
