Right now I am sitting at Gate 40 at the T2 domestic termianl, just waiting for the plane. I think it is just after first light meaning that it is starting to get light, but that the sun has not yet rissen. Therefore I can see the fantastic colours on the horizon – the yellows and reds and blues. It just makes me think how wonderful it must be to see Uluru at sunrise\/sunset [That is a trip I *MUST* take one of these days, as well as seeing the Olgas]<\/p>\n
I can see the plane I will be flying on, and the pilot with the maintainence staff have started their pre-flight checks, as well as their morning checks. Right now I am torn between writing in this blog, and watching the inspection – not because I do not trust the ground staff – but because I find all this sort of thing interesting. <\/p>\n
The drive in was ultra quick – although I am constantly surprised at how many cars are on the road at that time of morning. Dropping off my bags were really quick… And it was strange not being given anything at the end of the process other than my baggage check. I would have thought that would at least give me that normal ticket booklet with the terms and conditions for travel. It is probably assumed that I have already read those. <\/p>\n
I have been assigned seat 10F, which should put me somwhere in the front half of the plane. Window seat on the right I would guess. Anyway I had better get going… Too many things to look at…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
