It HAD to happen… Finally! A damp and overcast day outside. I will upload the photos later, probably when I am in the USA. My heel is feeling a heap better, but I will not be doing a heap of walking on it since I would rather not be having to limp through trying to make my connection in Chicago. I am slightly concerned about that connection. In the 2:15 I need to clear customs and get to my next flight.

I am not sure if I have mentioned this but I have ordered an upgrade to Business Class on the LA to Auckland trip. I do not know yet if this has come through. I may not know until I get to LA in fact.

Also, one of my clients has asked if it is possible for me to drop by FiJi on the way through. There are a lot of things up in the air at the moment, but this is a possibility. Some other things need to be sorted out first before that decision is made. Anyway I am almost packed. All liquids have been removed from my carry on bag, and it will only contain the bare essentials (iPod, Laptop, DVD’s, Power Cable, Charger etc)
