After a few hassles I am getting stuff ready for clients. And I am getting things ready for my trip. I will probably get to the Airport by train on Sunday morning arriving about 10:30. That fits in best with getting a lift to the train station rather than anything else. Once there I will check in, maybe do some shopping and go up to the Qantas Club… And veg out. And wait for the plane to leave.

I am getting things ready – so far I have about US$21 in my wallet from previous trips. I thought I had some coins, but I could only find 1c pieces so I will not have coins. I will have some $1 notes for tips. I have cleared out my laptop bag and removed all the sort of junk that they do not really like you carrying on planes. Tools and that sort of thing.

Darryl’s tip for the week: When you are going to somewhere which has significant baggage allowances, take a spare bag folded up in your suitcase in case you want to bring back more than you can fit in your case. After lunch I need to do some washing so that I can start packing by bag in ernest.
